Angela Perry, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor of Chemistry
2005 University of South Florida, Ph.D. in Chemistry, with Professor Brian Space

2000 University of South Florida, B.A. in Chemistry
Research Interests
Our work focuses on theoretically modeling interfaces. Our goal is to directly link the experimental spectroscopy to the underlying structure and dynamics of the interfaces. Our results for the water/vapor and carbon tetrachloride/water interface compare remarkably well with experimental results, thus further engendering confidence in our computational methods.
Skills students should expect to learn and develop include:
- Scientific knowledge
- Communication
- Writing
- Problem-solving
- Time management
- Handling data, software and technology
