Members

The group brings together physicists, chemists, materials scientists, engineers, mathematicians and computer scientists. Members come from many countries and from programs across MSU; most of our former undergraduates went on to graduate school or to careers in industry. To protect students from unsolicited messages, we do not list current members; please write to Prof. Mendoza-Cortés to reach the group. Interested in joining? See Join us.
