teaching

Instructor-on-record for the second semester of a two-semester sequence in introductory physics. A calculus-based study of electricity, magnetism, optics and modern physics. Taught at NCSU.

A first course in university physics, taught using examples and applications from many areas of science. Topics include the concepts of force and energy, mechanics, waves and fluids.

  Leading labs.

A course for engineering students. Principles of mechanics of particles and rigid bodies, including Newton’s Laws, rotational kinematics and dynamics, torque, energy, momentum, angular momentum, and simple harmonic motion.

  Leading labs.

A course for engineering students. Oscillations and waves, interference; electrostatics, electric potential, circuit elements; magnetic fields.

  Leading labs.

Ultimate questions in modern science are surveyed with emphasis on physical sciences: origin of space-time, elements and structure in the cosmos (stars, planets, galaxies). Additional tasks include training TAs, organizing the course, administrative duties

  Leading tutorials.

An introduction to common techniques in experimental physics, data analysis and error analysis.

  Leading labs.

An introduction to thermodynamics for Engineering Physics and Physics students.

  Leading labs.

Experiments in atomic physics, neutron physics, optics, spectroscopy, mechanics. As part of this course, students will become familiar with computing for instrument interfacing, data visualization and data analysis.

  Leading labs.

A presentation of recent contributions made to the fields of molecular and cell biology by the use of physical approaches. In particular, the following topics are discussed: physical properties of biomolecules, protein folding, molecular motors, cell motion and cell adhesion. Emphasis on the critical evaluation of current research literature.
