Research summary
AI-generated

Diego Becerra works on computational and theoretical modeling of polymers and fluid transport at small scales, using molecular simulations and theory to study how polymer chains move and relax, how liquid crystal-containing polymers behave, and how water and ions flow through nanoscale channels made of materials like graphene. This research combines chemical engineering, physics, and materials science to understand molecular-scale behavior relevant to designing new materials and nanofluidic devices.
