Treatment of electrostatic interactions in simulations remains a topic of current research. These interactions are present in most biomolecular simulations, and they remain an expensive part of the simulation. Herein we ...

Understanding and predicting the effect of various environments that differ in terms of pH and the presence of cosolutes and macromolecules on protein properties is a formidable challenge. Yet this knowledge is crucial in ...

Highly excited molecules are of great importance in many areas of chemistry including photochemistry. The dynamics of highly excited molecules are affected by the intermolecular and intramolecular energy flow between many ...

Research described in this thesis examines the surface and bulk behavior of analytes in food contact polymers. Irganox 1076 (IN1076) and Irganox 1010 (IN1010), phenol containing species often used as antioxidant additives ...

In addition to the well known two-state folding scenario, the energy landscape theory of protein folding predicts the possibility of downhill folding under native conditions. This intriguing prediction was extended by ...

Common microfabrication techniques haven been briefly reviewed and a detailed description of multiphoton absorption polymerization (MAP) ranging from its history, specific experimental setup, and resolution to its applications ...

The goal of this thesis is to understand how the asymmetry of interfaces affects the structure of adsorbed surfactants and organization within the monolayer. These studies employ a variety of experimental techniques including ...
