  • Aug 2007 - Mar 2009

  Researching cellulose structure using various spectroscopic and microscopic techniques (IR and Raman spectroscopy) and developed a novel methodology to study morphologies using mechanics. Pioneered and developed methods to use two experimental techniques simultaneously to extract relevant data (Vibrational microscopy in conjunction with mechanical testing).
