Sina Kheiri, Ph.D.
My research passion lies in the convergence of microfluidics, organ-on-a-chip technology, computational modelling, and the exciting realm of self-driving labs.

I am an NSERC Postdoctoral associate in Kamm Lab and Raman Lab at MIT.

Prior to this, I earned my PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Toronto and my MASc in Mechanical Engineering from the University of British Columbia.
