I am a PhD student in the Biological Physics and Mechanics group, supervised by Prof Eric Lauga. I am generally interested in fluid dynamical problems in microbiological contexts at various length scales, inside and outside the cell. My research comprises a range of problems in microswimmer dynamics and intracellular flows, including:

• an improved resistive-force theory for helical filaments;
• hydrodynamic hovering of bacteria near rigid surfaces;
• collective motion of bacteria in cylindrical confinement;
• flows and transport inside the intracellular networks of actively pinching tubules which comprise the endoplasmic reticulum;
• boundary-driven cytoplasmic streaming in elongated cells such as the Drosophila embryo.
