My research focuses on the development, analysis and applications of mathematical and computational models for complex fluid dynamics and fluid-structure interaction problems. Most of my research is directed towards applications in hemodynamics and soft tissue mechanics. I am working on the developing of novel models and robust, efficient computational algorithms that can be used to perform patient-specific numerical simulations and help with medical decision making.
