Juan G. Santiago

Juan G. Santiago an American academic. He is the Charles Lee Powell Foundation Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University and the Director of the Stanford Microfluidics Laboratory. His research includes studies of microscale transport and fluid flow phenomena, electrokinetics phenomena, two-phase flow, and coupled flow and reaction processes. This research has applications to microfluidics systems for on-chip chemical and biochemical analysis, biophysics studies of DNA and CRISPR, two-phase flow devices, and capacitive deionization technologies. Applications of this work also include molecular diagnostics, DNA mapping and sequencing, electronics cooling, and the production of drinking water. He serves as the Founding Editor-in-Chief of the Cambridge University Press journal ''Flow''. His work is cited more than 1500 times per year and has an ''h'' index of 91. He has authored and co-authored over 220 journal papers and 250 conference papers, and he is an inventor in 60 issued patents. He has played a significant role in co-founding several companies specializing in the field of microfluidics. Provided by Wikipedia
