In our research we investigate the properties of different soft matter systems at the molecular level, using computational modeling and molecular simulation. Our computer simulations can provide molecular-level information that might be difficult or impossible to capture in experiments. Our research is relevant to applications in energy, nanomaterials and nanotechnology, and biomolecular and environmental studies.
