My research program is focused on mechanical properties and processes at the nanometer scale, and developing the tools needed to explore this regime. For example, one of my interests is crystallization—a process of importance in both nature and industry. An especially interesting aspect of crystallization is the ability of certain molecular “poisons” to control crystallization kinetics by adsorbing to specific crystal growth faces. Such so-called

我的研究计划专注于纳米级的机械性能和工艺，并开发探索这一制度所需的工具。例如，我的兴趣之一是结晶--这是一个在自然界和工业中都很重要的过程。结晶的一个特别有趣的方面是某些分子“毒物”通过吸附到特定的晶体生长面来控制结晶动力学的能力。这种所谓的
