Education
- PhD in Experimental Condensed Matter Physics, Stony Brook University in Stony Brook, New York
Description of Research
My primary research interest is neutron and X-ray powder diffraction of condensed matter systems. Research topics include energy storage materials, catalysis, and magnetic and structural properties of strongly correlated electron systems such as geometrically frustrated magnets, superconductivity etc. and ab initio structure solutions from powder data.
