Leslie Yeo is a Senior Lecturer in Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering at Monash University, Australia. His research interests are in microfluidics and interfacial flow phenomena, in particular, the use of acoustic and electric fields for fluid actuation and particle manipulation at micron and nanometer scales. Leslie is the recipient of the 2007 Young Tall Poppy Science Award and is the Associate Editor of Biomicrofluidics.

Ravi Prakash Jagadeeshan is a Reader in Chemical Engineering at Monash University. Ravi’s research interests revolve around understanding the interaction of flow and micro-structure in complex fluids. Ravi and his students use an array of modeling techniques including non-equilibrium Brownian Dynamics, closure approximations, and finite element analysis. Ravi is the 2006-2008 President of the Australian Society of Rheology and the Editor of the Korea Australia Rheology Journal.

James Friend is an Associate Professor and Deputy Head of Department in Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering at Monash University, Australia. James’ current research interests are in micro and nano phenomena and their use in applications, particularly in acoustics and its coupling in solid/solid and solid/fluid interfaces to form microactuators, pumps, sensors, and particle manipulation devices. He is co-director with Leslie Yeo of the Micro/Nanophysics Research Laboratory at Monash University.
