Profile

Research and Teaching Interests

My research group studies a wide variety of materials, primarily using solid-state NMR.

We study materials such as white matter brain tissue, understanding the contrast mechanisms that underlie MRI techniques. We study nanomaterials such as cellulose nanocrystals, as well as transport in polymer gels and electrolytes.

We also work on NMR methods development.
