Our research involves the investigation of:

Thermodynamic and kinetic control over (bio/synthetic)macromolecular assemblies through modification of molecular building blocks (e.g. proteins or polymers) and environmental factors

Fundamental structure-dynamics-function relationships in biological and soft matter systems to inspire emergent material properties or to identify novel technological strategies

Multiscale computational algorithms (e.g. coarse-graining) to enable macromolecular simulations that require time and length scales inaccessible to atomic-resolution simulations

Our team brings together a diverse group of undergraduate students, graduate researchers, and postdoctoral scholars. Our members span chemical engineering, materials science, chemistry, computer science, applied mathematics, and quantitative biosciences at Colorado School of Mines (Golden, CO).
