Prof.  Ceniceros' current research projects are in the area of interfacial flows and in flow-structure interaction for complex (polymeric) fluids.
Some of the projects are conducted within the Complex Fluids Focused Research Group of the Computational Science and Engineering IGERT
program
.  Students are encouraged to come to the group meetings.
