Dr. Stebe is the Richer & Elizabeth Goodwin Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (CBE) at the University of Pennsylvania.
Her primary research interests are in non-equilibrium interfaces, with applications ranging from microfluidics to nanotechnology. One aspect of her research program focuses on interfaces between fluids and how surfactants can be used to influence interfacial flows. Other aspects address tailoring of solid-liquid interfaces with applications ranging from patterned electrodeposition to capillary-driven assembly and ordering of nanomaterials.
