Valerie Goss Lecturer of Chemistry
Education B.S. Chicago State University M.S., Loyola University of Chicago M.S., University of Notre Dame Ph.D., University of Notre Dame Research Interests Understanding binding and structural properties of nanostructures that have important implications for increasing storage capacity in molecular electronics, minimizing high temperature destabilizing effects in energy systems, and maintaining bioactivity of bound molecules in biosensors are topics of interest in the group. DNA origami nano technology, scanning microscopy (SEM and AFM), and electrochemistry are applicable techniques.
