研究领域

Research in our lab focuses on applying computational quantum chemical tools to understand and exploit noncovalent interactions for the design of functional organic and bioorganic systems. We are especially interested indelineating "transferable" structure-property relationships that underlie hydrogen (H-) bond mediated catalyses, self-assembly, and molecular recognition processes. Our mission is to provide chemical insights that will help bridge fundamental physical organic concepts to applications in clean energy and materials research to address the technological needs of tomorrow.
