Research Opportunity: GT AFM Project


Undergraduate research assignment available: Measuring intermolecular potential profiles using atomic force microscopy.

We are looking for an undergraduate student researcher interested in physical chemistry and atomic force microscopy. A student will utilize the exquisite sensitivity of the AFM to measure the attraction and repulsion of chemical or biomolecular interactions.  Students should know or be willing to learn basic chemistry, AFM, basic controls, and data analysis.
The position is open immediately and preference will be given to students who would like to commit for at least one year. Research credit could be offered in fall semester. Interested students can contact todd.sulchek@me.gatech.edu.
