Our research group in the Chemistry Department at the University of Utah is part of the Interfacial and Bioanalytical Chemistry(IBAC)  group. We meet twice a month with several other research groups to discuss research projects and special topics. Check out the IBAC website for more details.

Our research focuses on nanomaterials fabrication and synthesis, surface chemistry analysis, and spectroscopy to study light-matter interactions. Graduate and undergraduate students interested in studying plasmonic nanomaterials and gaining experience with a wide range of spectroscopy, microscopy, surface analysis, nanofabrication, and materials characterization techniques should contact Prof. Shumaker-Parry.
