Research
Currently my research focuses on finding ways to help students learn to use Computers in Chemistry. I run a website, chemcompute.org, where students can run computational chemistry jobs on supercomputers across the country. Our group studies how this helps students learn chemistry and gain confidence in using computers to perform scientific research. Our group develops new educational materials for teaching chemistry through quantum calculations and molecular dynamics.
