My general research interest encompasses multiscale methods and simulations, including various aspects of nanotechnology inspired by biology, medicine and engineering. In particular, I would like to develop, improve and experimentally validate predictive modeling and simulation efforts to further elucidate and characterize biological devices.

Furthermore, I am also interested in developing and optimizing computational methods using parallel programming. In future, I hope to develop unique multiscale and multiphysics analyses modules that can later be integrated into commercial software. This will help provide powerful predictive design methodologies of MEM (micro- electro- mechanical) and NEM (nano- electro- mechanical) devices.
