PUBLISHED: Our paper Gaps in the wall of a perivascular space act as valves to produce a directed flow of cerebrospinal fluid: A hoop-stress model has been published in J. R. Soc. Interface. Our paper Potentiating glymphatic drainage minimizes post-traumatic cerebral edema has been published in Nature. Our paper Hydraulic resistance of three-dimensional pial perivascular spaces in the brain has been published in in Fluids Barr. CNS.
Fluid mixing is both beautiful and devilishly difficult to understand, predict, or control. We study how fluid flows and the materials they carry change over space and time, primarily with application to cerebrospinal fluid flow in the brain and to liquid metals technologies.
