Zheng Li's CFD Lab in Morgan State University

Our team's primary research focus is on Multiphysics Modeling in biological applications and bioinspired designs.

They have secured funding for four research projects at the national level, totaling over $4.0 million. These projects include studies on fluid-structure interaction simulations in various vocal fold vibration-related diseases, the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in simulating drug spraying in allergic rhinitis, and the use of cryoablation simulations in the treatment of renal tumors. 

The main collaborating institutions include Johns Hopkins University, Vanderbilt University, University of Pittsburgh, and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. 

Team

Currently, our team consists of 2 Ph.D students, 6 postdoctoral fellows , one research assistant and some undergraduate students. Additionally, team members from collaborating institutions are also contributing to the project research. 

Research on Fluid-Structure Interaction Simulation in Various Diseases Related to Vocal Fold Vibrations.
