Most of my research interests lie within the two closely related fields of high-resolution molecular spectroscopy and interstellar chemistry. I have long been captivated by high-resolution spectroscopy's ability to provide unambiguous and detailed information about the structure and intramolecular dynamics of free molecules. This structural and dynamical information is not only of fundamental interest, but is also valuable in many branches of physical, organic, inorganic, and interstellar chemistry. In the latter case, spectroscopy serves as our only probe of the physical and chemical conditions of interstellar clouds, which represent the starting material for the formation of stars and planetary systems. The following links contain brief descriptions some of the major laboratory and observational research projects I have been involved in as a graduate student at the University of Chicago and as a Miller Fellow at the University of California at Berkeley.
