Research Summary and Objectives
The Molecular Engineering Laboratory at MIT, led by PI Bernhardt L. Trout, develops and applies sophisticated computational, theoretical, and experimental methods in order to probe complex chemical systems on the molecular level and engineer them for high value chemical applications with maximum specificity. Applications are currently in the fields of biopharmaceutical formulation, energy and the environment, and nucleation and crystallization. In parallel, we develop new computational methods which are generally applicable for the engineering of complex chemical systems.
