I am a post-doctoral fellow at MIT, HML, under the guidance of Professor Gareth McKinley.
My reasearch is on non-Newtonian fluid dynamics, specifically viscoelastic jets.
A very instructive set of videos about Newtonian, and non-Newtonian fluid dynamics is available here.
We study a variety of instabilities in the dynamics of falling viscoelastic jets, and also study the rheology of the materials we use.
A good resource for rheology is SOR.
Prior to this, I was a graduate student at Duke University, Department of Physics, working with Professor Bob Behringer on granular systems, which falls under "soft condensed matter".
Here is a list of other systems studied in soft condensed matter
