Research Interests:
Macromolecular Materials Chemistry, Nano-Building Blocks

The synthesis and production of surfaces and materials with tightly controlled ordering and properties is a goal of Nanotechnology. Steps toward this goal are the careful manipulation of the chemistry of well-defined macromolecules, characterization of their assembly characteristics, and their incorporation into functional materials.
