Our group focuses on the use of mathematics and computation to tackle diverse problems arising in optimization, control, data science, and energy/environmental systems. Motivating applications include waste management and recycling (e.g., plastic and organic waste), sensor design (e.g., air and water pollution), biological systems (e.g., microbial communities), and optimization of energy infrastructures (e.g., electrochemical and hydrogen systems). We work closely with experts from diverse computational and experimental fields.
