Charles Brooks

Understanding the forces that determine the structure, dynamics and reactivity of proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, and complexes containing these molecules, and the processes by which the structures are adopted is essential to extend our knowledge of the molecular nature of structure and function. To address such questions, we develop new methods from statistical mechanics, quantum mechanics ...

Bradford Orr

Professor Orr’s research centers on systems where the properties are controlled by the characteristics of surfaces or interfaces. As designed structures become ever smaller, their surface characteristics begin to influence, or even control, their behavior. Often the research involves scanning probe microscopies such as STM and AFM. Specific examples of research interests include: studies of ...

Daniel Atkins III

Daniel E. Atkins is Emeritus W.K. Kellogg Professor of Information and Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science  at the University of Michigan (UM), Ann Arbor. The first phase of his career focused on computer architecture including high-speed arithmetic methods now widely used in modern computers, as well as the design and construction of application-specific ...

Tabbye Chavous

Dr. Tabbye Chavous is the vice provost for equity and inclusion and chief diversity officer — and previously the director of the National Center for Institutional Diversity (NCID) — at the University of Michigan. A native of Aiken, South Carolina, Dr. Chavous attended the University of Virginia where she received her bachelor’s degree and went ...

Bilal Butt

Bilal Butt is an Associate Professor in the School for Environment and Sustainability at the University of Michigan. His research is concerned with understanding the drivers and effects of violent conflicts over natural resources. He places a large emphasis on empirical fieldwork to understand the lived geographies of the interactions between people and the environment ...

Danny Forger

Daniel Forger is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics. He is devoted to understanding biological clocks. He uses techniques from many fields, including computer simulation, detailed mathematical modeling and mathematical analysis, to understand biological timekeeping. His research aims to generate predictions that can be experimentally verified.

Eric Michielssen

Eric Michielssen, PhD, is Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Director of the Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery and Engineering, and Associate Vice President for Advanced Research Computing. His research interests include all aspects of theoretical, applied, and computational electromagnetics, with emphasis on the development of fast (primarily) integral-equation-based techniques for analyzing electromagnetic phenomena. His ...

Karthik Duraisamy

Karthik Duraisamy, PhD, is Associate Professor of Aerospace Engineering in the College of Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Prof. Duraisamy’s group focuses on data-driven modeling of computational physics problems. Specifically, we use statistical inversion and physics-informed machine learning techniques to augment existing computational models. Another focus area is formal reduced order modeling using ...
