Jun Zhang is a faculty member at New York University, specializing in the intersection of fluid dynamics and biological systems. His research involves studying the dynamics of flapping flags in the wind, an area closely associated with the locomotion of swimming fish and the thrust generation in birds. He explores mechanisms for pattern formation as well as thermal convection within a geophysical context, focusing on heat-transporting mechanisms that couple continents to the convective mantle. Through his work, Zhang aims to understand the intriguing dynamics of complex systems, often through tabletop experiments. His lab includes graduate students, post-docs, and engages talented undergraduate and high school students in active research programs. His research is supported by the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation.
Open Program in Biomedical Sciences (Vilcek Institute) covers departments like Biochemistry, Pathology, Neuroscience, Microbiology, etc.
