I am interested in the thermodynamics and statistical mechanics of liquids, liquid mixtures and glasses. Research in my group addresses fundamental problems in the areas of water and aqueous solutions, metastable liquids, the glass transition, nucleation theory, biopreservation and protein thermodynamics.
The bulk of my group's work is theoretical and computational. We employ the methods of statistical mechanics, as well as molecular-based computer simulations; we also conduct calorimetric and spectroscopic experiments in the area of biopreservation.
