Research Statement

We are interested in development and application of novel analytical and bioanalytical techniques for the exploration of interfacial phenomena, such as protein adsorption, phase segregation in lipid membranes and ion transport between immiscible liquids. Our laboratory uses a combination of nonlinear optical spectroscopies in conjunction with biological and electrochemical methods to achieve these objectives.
