Sadati, Monirosadat

Assistant Professor

My expertise in molecular engineering, polymer physics, rheology, and scattering techniques, as well as microfluidic and liquid crystals have prepared me to pursue a bottom-up approach to study the structure, dynamics, and self-assembly of soft materials, with an emphasis on anisotropic components to engineer responsive materials with unique architectural features designed for actuation, energy transfer, controlled cargo transport, and biosensing applications.
