Khá-Î Tô

I am a postdoc researching the dynamics of particle-laden interfaces, flow interaction with biological system, 2D triboelectric system and mechanical/acoustic properties of exotic material. I completed my master degree in high energy physics at National Taiwan University, Taiwan, in 2014 and my Ph.D. in 2022 working with Prof. Sidney Nagel at the University of Chicago. During my doctoral work, I studied the failure and cluster formation of particle rafts under expansional flow at different geometries. I am a passionate bunny lover and enjoy learning Sanshin and exploring Okinawa in my free time.
