Research Interests

How do molecules work, and how can we better put them to work for us? Bioanalytical, biophysical, & materials chemistry; nanoscience

Personal Interests

WWII history, Canadian spelling, Theatre, Fountain Pens, Judo & Jiu Jitsu, Whisky & good cocktails

I'm interested in learning about molecules:  how they're put together, how they work, and how they interact with each other. My research aims to take what we learn from fundamental studies and apply it advance society.

 

I'm a physical chemist by training and an analytical chemist by hire. Nanoscience and nanofabrication, and biophysical chemistry are threads weaving these two research discipline histories together. Materials science has become an increasingly important part of my research interests as we try to tune the properties and function of nanostructures with molecular-level precision. Along the way I've performed science outreach (e.g. Discovery Channel) and started my own company. Chemistry, the Central Science, has been a tremendous tool for discovery and application.
