Carys modulates fluid dynamics parameters in scalable bioreactors to examine the downstream effects on human pluripotent stem cell cultures. This research has the potential to transform large-scale manufacturing of stem cell therapeutics for clinical applications. She is a 2nd year PhD student in Mechanical Engineering, actively volunteers for STEM outreach and sustainability projects, and her favorite science fiction novelist is Isaac Asimov.

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Mechanical Engineering Department at The University of California at Riverside, advised by Professor Fabio Pasqualetti.

I am Ph.D. candidate in Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of California at Riverside working with Professor Akula Venkatram on air pollution modeling.

Jeanette is a 4th year PhD student in Mechanical Engineering working in Dr. Princevac's Laboratory for Environmental Flow Modeling where she studies chaparral crown fires.

I am a second year PhD researcher in Dr. Sandeep Kumar’s Multiphysics Lab in the Mechanical Engineering department.

I am Ravindra Bhardwaj, 2nd-year PhD student in Mechanical Engineering. My research topics include the study of Spintronics, Spin Seebeck effect, Rashba effect and Thermal Spin Galvanic Effect behaviour in thin films for spin mediated thermoelectric energy conversion.
