Rajat Dandekar's research centers on fluid mechanics, particularly how particles, droplets, and swimming microorganisms behave in complex fluids such as density-stratified or viscosity-varying liquids. This work has extended into applied biophysics topics like the aggregation and viscosity of antibody solutions, as well as computational modeling approaches (such as neural differential equations) applied to disease-spread models. Overall, the work blends theoretical and computational fluid dynamics with applications in biomedical and epidemiological modeling.
