About
Cheong-Ah Lee is a postdoctoral researcher at Jeju National University studying the hemodynamics and hemorheology of blood flow in large arteries. Her work combines particle-based numerical simulation with whole-blood ultrasound imaging to understand how red blood cell (RBC) aggregation and local hematocrit shape blood viscosity under pulsatile flow, with applications to the diagnosis and prognosis of cardiovascular and circulatory diseases.
Research Interests
- Hemodynamics and hemorheology of large arterial flow
- Numerical simulation of red blood cell (erythrocyte) aggregation under pulsatile (Womersley) flow
- Spatiotemporal blood viscosity and local hematocrit
- Ultrasound B-mode imaging of blood
