New faculty joining the department

The department is pleased to announce that Drs.  Emily Que and Sean Roberts will be joining the department in the 2013/2014 academic year.

 



Sean Roberts received his PhD from MIT under the supervision of Andrei Tokmakoff.  He went on to hold a postdoctoral position at the University of Southern California in the labs of Stephen Bradforth and Alexander Benderskii.  One of Dr. Roberts’ primary research goals is the use of tools of ultrafast nonlinear spectroscopy to build a comprehensive picture of the interfacial structure and dynamics of nanoscale materials.

 

 



Emily Que received her PhD from UC-Berkeley under the direction of Christopher Chang.  She is currently a postdoctoral fellow at Northwestern University in the lab of Thomas O’Halloran.  Dr. Que’s research interests span the fields of bioinorganic chemistry and chemical biology.  Her future plan center on the development of coordination chemistry approaches for studying cancer and reproductive biology.
