Siavash Ahrar (he/him/his)

Assistant Professor
CSULB / Biomedical Engineering
Long Beach, California, United States

Siavash is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at CSU Long Beach (starting August 2020). His research team (all undergraduate scholars) develops simple technologies to enable biological discovery and engineering. One key research goal for the lab is to establish hypothesis-driven tools (fluidics and imaging) to investigate the interplay between climate change and the hydrodynamics of aquatic organisms. Siavash obtained his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering at UC Irvine, where he developed pneumatic microfluidic computers and other microfluidic systems. He then served as a postdoctoral scholar (2016-2017) investigating the interaction between physical properties (flow, forces, surface properties) and the development of bacteria across multiple length scales. Next, he served as the first Science and Engineering Education fellow (SEEF) with the Department of Bioengineering at Stanford. As a SEEF, he focused on realizing an active and inclusive curriculum for the Bioengineering discipline.
