Bio

Sangjoon "Joon" Lee is a postdoctoral scholar at the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics. He was a CTR Fellowship recipient at the Center for Turbulence Research (CTR) from October 2024 to December 2025. He earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering with a Designated Emphasis in Computational and Data Science and Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley. His expertise is grounded in fluid mechanics and computational science, covering areas such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD), heat transfer analyses, vortex/turbulence physics and instabilities, numerical algorithms, and data-driven hydro-/aerodynamic design optimization.
