How can a fish direct the vortices shed from its body accurately
enough to generate its rapid and flexible motion? How should
planktonic organisms swim to create the smallest possible flow
disturbance in the water around them, and how do zooplankton most
efficiently create a feeding current? These questions are examples
of the fluid dynamics problems that I am currently addressing
experimentally and theoretically in my laboratory and in
collaboration with biologists. My main research goals are to
discover and explore new flow phenomena and to answer fundamental
questions about fluid flows in nature and technology.
