Starr Lab

Welcome to the research group of Francis Starr!

We focus on computational and theoretical approaches to problems in soft matter physics, materials science, and biophysics. Currently, our efforts focus on polymer blends & composites, 2D materials like graphene, phase change materials, the glass transition, and liquid & supercooled water.  See the research summary for a more complete discussion.

I am always looking for highly motivated undergraduate and graduate students.  If you are interesting in immersing yourself in new challenges of computational materials science, please contact to me.  Also please talk with the research group to get a student perspective.
