Nicole W. Xu Laboratories for Computational Physics & Fluid Dynamics U.S. Naval Research Laboratory Biography Publications Institution JoVE Articles Nicole W. Xu Dr. Nicole Xu is an engineer with an interdisciplinary background in robotics, fluid mechanics, and organismal biology. Currently, her research focuses on using 3D printed bioinspired shark skin wraps to improve the performance of fish-like robots and autonomous underwater vehicles as a National Research Council Postdoctoral Associate at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. In her Ph.D. work at Stanford University, Dr. Xu developed a robotic system to control live jellyfish swimming, which has received international press, including interviews on BBC Radio and TV. She received her M.S. in Bioengineering from the California Institute of Technology and B.S.E. in Bioengineering from the University of Pennsylvania.
