- Advanced Materials and Nanotechnolog
- Cellular and Biomolecular Engineering
- Energy and Environmental Engineering
- Molecular Simulation and Thermodynamics
The Patel group strives to achieve a molecular-level understanding of solvation and transport in aqueous and polymeric systems, with applications ranging from biomolecular interactions and assemblies to the design of advanced materials for water purification and renewable energy. To study these biological, nanoscopic, and polymeric systems, we use statistical mechanics and liquid state theory in conjunction with the development and use of novel molecular simulation, enhanced sampling and machine learning techniques.
