Biography
Jifu Tan received his BS in civil engineering from Beijing Jiaotong University and his MS and PhD degrees in mechanical engineering from Lehigh University.
Before joining Binghamton, he was an assistant professor and then promoted to associate professor at Northern Illinois University (NIU). He did his postdoctoral research in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania.
He is also a guest faculty research participant at Argonne National Laboratory. He is the recipient of the 2024 David W. Raymond Award for Use of Technology in Teaching at NIU. He also received the NSF CAREER award in 2024.
His primary research interest is fluid structure interaction and its application in engineering and medicine, such as drug delivery, blood flow modeling, thrombosis and bleeding simulation, microfluidic device design for cell separation. He is also interested in high performance computing, multiscale modeling, data-driven models and machine learning. He is actively engaged in developing open-source code for scientific research.
