Research

I joined the Kanatzidis group in June, 2012. My doctoral research focused on the synthesis and properties of inorganic metal-oxide clusters, called Polyoxometalates. In this group my research mainly focuses on the synthesis and catalytic activity of chalcogenide-based aerogels or chalcogels.
