Physics

Professor, School of Physics and Astronomy

Research Interests:

Pryke is an experimental cosmologist and educator. His research currently centers on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) - the after glow from early times when the Universe was a smooth hot plasma. By studying the CMB we can learn much about the origin, contents and ultimate fate of the Universe - CMB studies are at the center of the current "golden age" of cosmology. Pryke has played a leading role in the construction and…

Dave Odde
He/Him

Biomedical Engineering

Professor, Department of Biomedical Engineering

Research Interests:
Research overview

The Odde Lab is focused on how the fundamental thermodynamics, kinetics, diffusive transport, and mechanics of the molecular components of the cell enable basic cellular functions such as migration, division, and polarization. From these studies we are seeking to then understand how these go awry in the context of diseases such as brain cancer and Alzheimer's disease, and take corrective therapeutic action.

We use an integrated modeling-experimental approach,…

Professor

Research Interests:

Research Page UMN Experts Page

Professor Schwartzentruber utilizes particle simulation methods to model non-equilibrium and chemically reacting gas flows. Non-equilibrium flow occurs when the mean-free-path between molecular collisions in a gas is no…

Research Interests:
Research Interests

We are a computational research group working to accelerate the discovery and design of solid-state materials of critical importance to sustainable energy technologies (batteries, photovoltaics, catalysts, ceramics, and more).

Our work lies at the intersection of quantum chemistry and machine learning, where these tools are used together to develop predictive theories for solid-state reactivity. In doing so, we can design synthetic pathways to…
