We strive to better the health and security of our planet through investigations into fundamental interfacial and surface phenomena and to elucidate emergent mechanisms and pathways towards manipulation of matter at the ångström scale.
We apply principles from nanomechanics, nanomaterials, and nanomanufacturing to tackle grand challenges in the following broad areas.
adapting to a rapidly changing world
democratizing health and safety
manufacturing at the ångström scale
