Biography
Thomas Cubaud’s research is aimed at developing the science and engineering of small-scale flows to new potentials. He studies physical hydrodynamics and examines interfacial phenomena and transport properties of soft materials in microsystems. Research topics include multiphase flows, surface tension, wetting dynamics, miscible flows, and fluid instabilities. Long term goals include conception of innovative microfluidic systems for the diagnostic, manufacturing, and delivery of complex fluids.
