About (Summary)
I am currently a Ph.D. student in Biomedical Engineering, working as a graduate research assistant at the Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems, Mississippi State University, USA. My research work focuses on molecular dynamics simulation of complex membrane systems and their behaviors under mechano-physiological damages. I am also gaining experience in investigating biomechanics and damage mechanism of biological structures in a multiscale modeling framework, applying computational approaches to examine nanostructures and nanomaterials for applications in both engineering and biomedical fields. I desire to become a competent researcher, who is able to conduct scientific studies that advance knowledge and create new possibilities, as well as establish multidisciplinary collaborations, help others and contribute to the community worldwide.
