Research
Travis's research focuses on applying computational methods in characterizing complex interfaces for polymer/plastics applications. He works with Kayla Sprenger on investigating atomistic interactions at various organic-inorganic and biomolecular interfaces using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. His current work involves interfacial characterization of depolymerization catalysts, sustainable biopolymers, and plastic-degrading enzymes.
