Professor Antonio Celani is Head and Senior Research Scientist at The Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics ICTP

"Table-top Experiments Inspired by Geophysical Phenomena" by Prof. Jun Zhang from NYU & NYU-Shanghai

2025-11-10
L4F01

Prof. Jun Zhang, graduated and received his BS degree from Wuhan University in China, and earned his Ph.D. in Physics at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. After a postdoctoral experience in biophysics at Rockefeller University, he came to NYU and started building the Applied Math Lab at the Courant Institute and later he became a faculty member (physics and math) there. His research interest has been in the field of physics of fluids and complex systems, which includes biomechanics or bio-locomotion (organismal swimming and flying), geophysical fluids (thermal convection, continental dynamics, and erosion), solid-on-solid friction, urban heat-island effect, and self-organization phenomena at many different scales.
