Area of expertise
Cancer biology; In-silico modeling; Continuum modeling of granular media
Meitham has studied the mathematical and experimental modeling of growth and invasion in brain tumors. Using tumor-on-a-chip platforms, he developed in-silico models to capture various aspects of tumor progression. Additionally, he has worked on modeling the rheological response of axisymmetric grains in granular media. By applying continuum mechanics and thermodynamics, he aims to formulate a continuum mechanical theory for the dense flow of inelastic granular particles.
