研究领域

Environmental Chemistry/Energy Science/Theory & Computation

Welcome to the home page of The Ratner Group at Northwestern University. Our group members focus on understanding structure, function and dynamics behavior of the molecular systems. With the ever changing group, and our close collaborations with theorists and experimentalists at Northwestern and worldwide, the flux of problems here is as broad as our minds will allow.
