Interests:

Research and development in Nuclear Resonant Scattering and its applications in many scientific fields including condensed matter physics, material science, geo-sciences, and bio-physics. Lattice dynamics and thermodynamics is a common theme through many of my research, which investigate materials for their elastic, thermal, and structural properties. Data analysis and simulation are areas of great interest to me. Through out the years I have also worked on other inelastic x-ray scattering and spectroscopy techniques.
