Research Focus
Investigating soft condensed matter, focusing on polymers, colloids, self-assembly processes, liquid-liquid phase separation
mainly using scattering techniques (SANS, SAXS, SLS, DLS)
Development of in-situ sample environments for irradiation, light scattering, separation techniques, fast mixing
