The Margulis Group

Post. Doc. Position Open

Welcome!
Our research focuses on theoretical and computational studies of different condensed phase and interfacial systems.
Of most interest to us are:

• The dynamics and thermodynmics of Room-Temperature Ionic Liquids.
• The development of tools to tackle the Sugar Folding Problem.
• The properties of water and other small molecules on the surface of atmospheric dust.
• The diffusion of small molecules in crowded intracellular environments.
