Professor Colosqui's research involves theoretical, computational, and experimental studies of transport processes in micro- and nanoscale thermofluid systems with nanostructured interfaces. A primary interest centers on mesoscale interfacial processes and the associated novel effects that classical, continuum-based descriptions fail to capture. His group integrates computational modeling, including molecular dynamics, mesoscale simulation, and computational fluid dynamics, with micro/nanofabrication and experimental analysis. Current applications of his work include microfluidic devices for energy conversion and storage, separation processes, functional nanostructured surfaces, and nanoparticle transport and deposition at fluid-solid interfaces.

Carlos Colosqui joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering faculty in the fall of 2013. Before joining Stony Brook University, he was a research associate at the Levich Institute for Physicochemical Hydrodynamics at CCNY and the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Princeton University. He holds a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Boston University. Professor Colosqui is also an affiliated faculty member in the Department of Applied Mathematics & Statistics and is directly involved in workforce development initiatives for advanced nanofabrication.
