The Strouse group runs a highly collaborative, interdisciplinary team of scientists including: inorganic, materials, analytical, physical, physics, engineering and biochemistry students. Utilizing the tools of spectroscopy (time-resolved optical, vibrational, structural (XRD, XAS), NMR, magnetism) and microscopy (optical and electron), the Strouse group is able to selectively synthesize, interrogate, and manipulate materials at the nanoscale to ask questions that address a wide range of physical and biological phenomenon.
