The Driscoll lab is an experimental physics lab at Northwestern University; our research lies at the junction between soft-matter physics and fluid dynamics.
New preprint! arxiv.org/abs/2511.00234 In collaboration with Ryker Fish & Brennan Sprinkle, Akalanka found patterning that emerges in strongly confined microroller suspensions. Surprisingly, the mechanism for the pattern formation is the recirculating flow created by (very) far away boundaries.
