About the speaker: 

Dr. Hao Lin received his BS degree in Mechanics from Peking University in 1996, and PhD in Mechanical Engineering from University of California, Berkeley in 2001. He was a postdoctoral fellow in the Center for Turbulence Research at Stanford University from 2001 to 2003, and a postdoctoral researcher in the Mechanical Engineering department from 2003 to 2005. He joined the faculty of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Rutgers University in July, 2005. He has worked on various research areas including cavitation and sonoluminescence, and large scale fluid flow in astrophysical systems. His present interests are in the transport and fluid flow on the micro- and nano-scales. In particular, he has expertise in modeling and experimental investigation of electric-field-mediated transport in both lab-on-a-chip and biophysical/biomedical systems. He is a recipient of the NSF CAREER Award in 2008, and the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) in 2010.
