RODRIGO NORIEGA

The focus of my research is to understand the connection between structure and function in complex macromolecular materials, with interests both in artificial macromolecules (synthetic polymers) and in biological ones (proteins, DNA). Using time-resolved optical techniques (ultrafast laser spectroscopy and single-molecule fluorescence microscopy) I am able to characterize multiscale, dynamic processes in disordered materials at their native time and length scales.
