My research group and I are broadly interested in the science and technology of molecular materials. We are learning how the structures and properties of such materials depend on the individual molecules from which they are built, and we are using this understanding to create valuable new materials by design. This work is important because advanced materials used in future technology must have structures and properties controlled with nanometric precision. Progress in this area requires a multidisciplinary approach, using tools and understanding taken from many areas of science. Collectively, our group has mastered these skills in the course of its recent work. Individual students trained in the group develop a strong core of skills, but they also learn how to cross the conventional boundaries of disciplines, work in other laboratories, and develop an ability to speak and write the languages of different fields.

我和我的研究小组对分子材料科学和技术有广泛的兴趣。我们正在了解这些材料的结构和性质如何取决于它们所构建的单个分子，我们正在利用这种理解通过设计创造有价值的新材料。这项工作很重要，因为未来技术中使用的先进材料必须具有纳米精度控制的结构和性能。这一领域的进展需要多学科的方法，使用来自许多科学领域的工具和理解。总体而言，我们小组在最近的工作中掌握了这些技能。在小组培训的个别学生发展了强大的核心技能，但他们也学会了如何跨越学科的传统界限，在其他实验室工作，并发展了说和写不同领域的语言的能力。
