On January 9th, Professor Masaaki Tamagawa of Kyushu University of Technology, Japan, made an academic report entitled "Fluid Mechanics and related biomedical applications" for teachers and students of our institute. The report was presided over by Vice Dean Yan Bingchun and attended by faculty and students of the Medical School.

Dr. Tamagawa's research interests include computational fluid mechanics for thrombus dissolution and the development of shockwave fluid drug delivery systems in the fields of biofluid engineering and medical engineering. In this report, Professor Tamakawa detailed the application of computer fluid dynamics to analyze airway and indoor air circulation, and optimize indoor ventilation to prevent COVID-19 infection; Study on numerical simulation and algorithm of cardiovascular system flow; Shock waves and bubbles are used in drug delivery and regenerative medicine systems; The generation and mechanism of microshock wave in arterial or venous interventional therapy were discussed. The mechanism of neutrophil rotation and promotion. From the perspective of engineering, Professor Tamakawa's research has been integrated with basic medicine, clinical medicine and preventive medicine disciplines, inspiring teachers and students to conduct interdisciplinary thinking and integrate multidisciplinary knowledge for interdisciplinary research.

After the presentation, Professor Tamagawa had an active discussion and exchange with the participating teachers and students, and gave serious and detailed answers to the questions posed by teachers and students.
