Prof Gerald Fuller, Fletcher Jones II Professor of Chemical Engineering, Stanford University

Venue : IAS Lecture Theater, Lo Ka Chung Building, Lee Shau Kee Campus, HKUST
Video & Photos Details

Prof Gerald Fuller from Stanford University describes his research on drainage and dewetting that measured above silicone hydrogel (SiHy) contact lenses in the presence of insoluble layers. He demonstrates that the interfacial rheology of these layers (meibum and DPPC layers) is central to their ability to stabilize aqueous layers against drainage and dewetting.

For attendees’ attention

 

  The lecture is free and open to all. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis.
     
  Light refreshments will be served from 4:00 to 4:30 pm.
