Kinematics and dynamics of gas/organic surface energy exchange We have extensive experience in studies of collisions of gas phase species with organic self-assembled monolayers. Molecular beam scattering experiments in ultra high vacuum environments are complemented with molecular dynamics simulations of the same processes. The combination of experimental and computational approaches yields synergistic outcomes that add to our understanding of gas/surface…

Surface Modification of Next-Gen Implant Materials In collaboration with the Sabri Lab (UM Physics) we are developing peptidyl surface coatings to tune the biocompatibility of silica aerogel materials that are destined to become scaffolds for neuronal regrowth.
