My main research interests are in interfacial transport phenomena and their coupling with bulk flows. I graduated from ESPCI in Paris in 2020 and obtained my Ph.D. in December 2023 at the University of Rennes, France. There, I studied surfactant transport mechanisms in soap bubbles and liquid foams, both theoretically and experimentally, under the supervision of Pr. Isabelle Cantat. As a postdoc at KTH, my experimental work focuses on highlighting the effects of surfactants and chemical contaminations on the properties of Lubricant-Infused Surfaces (LIS).
I was born in 1991 in Chile. My research interests are on surface interfaces and wetting phenomena. I graduated at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile in 2018, where I did my bachelor studies in Astronomy and Master in Experimental Physics. I obtained my PhD degree at Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz, Germany in 2024. There, I investigated the spontaneous charging of impinging drops on surfaces coated with polymer layers, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Hans-Jürgen Butt and Dr. Michael Kappl. My postdoctoral research involves the study of non-newtonian liquids interacting with solid surfaces at high shear rates
I was born in Doha, Qatar in 1993. I graduated at Imperial College London in 2021 where I did my master's studies on fluid mechanics in offshore, coastal, and built environments. Here with my Ph.D. , my research interest lies in numerically modelling contact line problems specifically in the presence of surfactants. We aim to understand this complex dynamics using the Phase field method.
I was born in Shijiazhuang, China, in 1998. I studied theoretical and applied mechanics in University of Science and Technology of China and got my bachelor’s degree in 2020. I traveled to Sweden and studied in the engineering mechanics program in KTH. Afterwards, I joined the Fluids and Surfaces Group and continue my study in KTH as a PhD student. I’m interested in experiments and I will work on lubricant dynamics and flow transport over liquid-infused surfaces.
