Our labs are located in the Keck Center for Science and Engineering at Chapman UniversitY. We draw students from both the FOWLER SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING and the Schmid College of Science and Technology. OUr research focuses on various aspects of soft materials chemistry and physics for applications in bioengineering.

With respect to research:

“The first principle is that you must not fool yourself—and you are the easiest person to fool. So you have to be very careful about that. After you’ve not fooled yourself, it’s easy not to fool other scientists. You just have to be honest in a conventional way after that. . . . I’m talking about a specific, extra type of integrity that is not lying, but bending over backwards to show how you’re maybe wrong, that you ought to do when acting as a scientist. And this is our responsibility as scientists, certainly to other scientists, and I think to laymen.” – Richard Feynman

With respect to beliefs:

“I believe that you can reach the point where there is no longer any difference between developing the habit of pretending to believe and developing the habit of believing” – Umberto Eco in Foucault’s Pendulum

With respect to life:

Always follow Wheaton’s Law.
