Saikat Basu, assistant professor in South ��ֱ���� State University's Department of Mechanical Engineering, has been invited to the American Society of Mechanical Engineering Rising Stars of Mechanical Engineering Celebration and Showcase.  

The invite-only event will be an opportunity for Basu, a 2024 National Science Foundation CAREER ��ֱ���� recipient, to share his groundbreaking research on the flow physics inside human respiratory systems with the nation's top engineers and scientists.  

“As an academic scholar, my background ranges from a civil engineering major in India to a doctorate in engineering mechanics in the U.S. with a focus on theoretical fluid mechanics. Subsequently, I worked as a postdoctoral researcher in experimental and computational fluid mechanics, applying these methods to biological and clinical problems — eventually gravitating to exploring the fluid dynamics of complex biophysical systems as an independent faculty," Basu said. 

Basu will give a 15-minute poster presentation at the showcase, which is being held during the ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition on Nov. 12 in Portland, Oregon, and will be conferred a “ASME Rising Star of Mechanical Engineering” certificate.
