Our Research
Our research involves a problem solving approach to answering fundamental questions
in chemistry,
as well as development and application of novel strategies (chemical, instrumental,
and mathematical)
for measurement science. The overall goal of our research is to provide improved strategies
for answers to important questions of chemical origin using the problem solving approach
common to analytical measurements. Although the primary focus of our research is in
the broad area of chemistry, most of our studies emphasize the more specific areas
of analytical, materials, and environmental sciences, with a strong emphasis on bioanalytical
chemistry.
