About

David Saintillan is a Professor at the University of California, San Diego. His research areas include active matter, fluid mechanics, and cell motility, as illustrated by his recent articles on topics such as co-annular confined fluids, electrohydrodynamic drift, and the dynamics of active nematic fluids. Professor Saintillan has also contributed to understanding the interplay between mechanosensitive adhesions and membrane tension, as well as developing models for sperm locomotion.
