The Schmidt Group applies computational approaches to study complex materials, often with direct applications to problems of relevance to energy and fuels.
Physical
Todd Group
The Todd Lab’s interest lies in investigating the origins of life on Earth and understanding the implications for the possibility of life on other planets.
Widicus Weaver Group
The Widicus Weaver Group conducts research in the emerging field of prebiotic astrochemistry to investigate the chemical mechanisms in space that lead to the development of biological systems.
Wright Group
The Wright Group focuses on using nonlinear spectroscopy as a tool to study a vast array of different molecular and material states–from low-energy vibrational modes of proteins to excitonic and ionized states of quantum dots and everything in between–and their coherent dynamics.
Yang Group
The Yang Group conducts cutting-edge research in theoretical and computational chemistry, with two main areas of focus: (1) the development of advanced theoretical methods for multicomponent quantum chemistry calculations, and (2) the application of these methods to complex chemical, biological, and materials systems.
Yethiraj Group
The Yethiraj Group research focuses on theoretical studies of soft condensed matter.
Zanni Group
The Zanni Group studies topics in biophysics and the energy sciences using 2D IR spectroscopy.
Bergmann Group (Affiliate)
The research activities of the Bergmann Group focus on the development and application of novel synchrotron and X-ray laser techniques.
Gilbert Group (Affiliate)
The Gilbert Group investigates these fascinating biominerals, revealed their complex crystal arrangement, discovered how they co-orient all their nanocrystals, and is discovering how they self-sharpen with use.
Hoskins Group (Affiliate)
The Hoskins Group uses highly multidisciplinary approach to studying eukaryotic RNA processing.
