Hall, Ryan
Ph.D. Advisor: Ronald Larson, Michael Solomon
In Dr. Larson's lab, I'm studying the relaxation dynamics of polymers, with varying architecture, through a combination of rheological experimentation and theoretical approaches. The aim is to enhance the production of complex polymeric architectures and chemistries in the large-scale industrial setting. In Dr. Solomon's lab, I'm studying the rheological response of colloidal gels, which will provide insight into the manufacturing and storage of various commercialized goods produced by companies like P&G.
