Professor Tsen's research group focuses on the interaction of light with solid state and biological systems, in particular on the use of ultrafast laser sources to elucidate novel electron transport phenomena.

Rez's background is in the theory of electron scattering as applied to electron microscopy and analysis. His studies include the development of electron energy loss spectroscopy and the microstructure of kidney stones.

Weierstall is working on bio-sample delivery methods for X-ray Free Electron Lasers and Synchrotrons. He is a member of the NSF BioXFEL Science and Technology Center.

Wade Van Horn's current interests focus on the interplay between biomolecular function and structure, especially as it relates to human physiology and pathophysiology.

Zain Bukhari is involved with Dr. Wayne Frasch’s research in SoLS, using gold nanorods to analyze the biophysics of the FoF1-ATP synthase. This work is innovative, interdisciplinary, and applicable to the medical field.

Assistant professor in the School of Molecular Sciences. Chiu's laboratory focuses on membrane protein structures and lipid-protein interaction as well as single-particle cryo-electron microscopy.
