Sophie Roman: Porous Media Research Group, University of Orléans, France I am a microfluidic experimentalist motivated by the desire to decipher the complex interplay between flow microdynamics, geochemistry, and living organisms in porous media. My past and current research interests cut across different domains including the understanding of blood circulation, the use of the incredible properties of carbon nanotubes, the sequestration of CO2 into geological reservoirs, and the remediation of contaminated aquifers. These processes share a description in a cascade of scales in which phenomena occurring at the micrometer scale translate into large-scale events. The complex feedback between physico-chemical processes and between scales fascinates me. My focus areas are: Microfluidics for geosciences, multiphase flow, reactive transport, imaging, colloid transport, CO2 sequestration, and groundwater remediation. |
