We study light-activated membrane proteins important in bioenergetics and vision. In our research, we combine methods of modern biophysics with techniques of molecular biology and biochemistry.
2.1 billion people lack safe drinking water at home and around 1.2 billion people have no access to electricity. My research focus is in the area of applied Thermofluids with particular interest in clean energy and clean water technologies.
