Currently, he is investigating the kinetics of nanoparticle dissolution at the mesocontinuum level using the phase field method. The goal is to develop a com- prehensive, theoretical and numerical strategy to predict the dissolution kinetics of small particles from experimentally measurable parameters to accelerate the particle engineering process during formulation development.

Background knowledge gained from pre-classreading assignments prepares students for active class discussion and helps them transformfrom a passive to an active learner. Within a positive and supportive class environment, itcould help students earn more recognition and respect from their peers.
