Research Interest

  • In my research I use mathematical and computational tools to design a variety of materials—particularly functional biomaterials. The main tools I employ are data-driven machine learning methods, statistical mechanics, simulations, and rational design. I am especially interested in utilizing data-driven machine learning methods because they enable efficient exploration of the chemical space and offer insight by identifying expressive descriptors.
