In the CFP Lab, Lauren studies combustion of various wire insulation materials in space exploration atmospheres (SEA), which include environments with micro-gravity, external radiant flux, low velocity flows, reduced pressures, and elevated oxygen concentrations. She does this through experimental work and computation/theoretical tools to aid in interpretation of test results. http://cfp.berkeley.
Lauren also researches in the EMT Lab (http://emtlab.berkeley.edu/
