Her research involves exploring dynamics and functionality of biophotonic molecules via time-resolved spectroscopy. Her lab uses modern femtosecond and picosecond time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopies − both transient absorption and photoelectron photoion coincidence spectroscopy − to investigate dynamic biophotonic processes in the gas-phase, in molecular clusters, where the complexity of the environment can be varied, and in solution. She will use her background to mentor the students through the design process of different testing apparatuses, from vacuum chambers to ADCS testing.
