Projects:

In the past I have worked on the hydrogenation of polystyrene in supercritical fluids.

Currently, I am heading up the new Light scattering lab here at UNC-CH.  I am working on the absolute characterization of polymers in CO2 using dynamic and static light scattering (as well as some Neutron Scattering)

In the future I hope to explore mixed micelles in CO2

Publications & Presentations: 

I have one publication in Macromolecules and another publication in progress and 4 presentations at the national meeting, all of which are not related to CO2 work. 

 
During my current post-doc position, I have: 
One chapter in a book co-authored with Joe DeSimone and Ruben Carbonell: Annual Review of Energy and the Environment Vol. 25. (in press)

One presentation: Scattering Studies of Mixed Micelles in Supercritical Carbon dioxide. Ply Millennial 2000 meeting, December 9-13, 2000, Waikola, Hawaii.
