Tim Doerr

Tim obtained a BA in physics from Oberlin College and a Ph.D. in physics from CWRU, where he is currently a lecturer and a researcher. He studies, among other things, the behavior of liquid crystals at interfaces.

Jeremy Cuson

Jeremy is a junior undergraduate working towards a dual physics/math degree at CWRU. Currently, he works on a theoretical project to describe the chevron structure of liquid crystals and is starting a project involving the shape of an isotropic droplet under the influence of an applied electric or magnetic field.

 

 

 

Brian Kubera

Brian is expecting to graduate in 2004 from CWRU with a BS degree in physics. Currently, in collaboration with Dr. Taylor, he is investigating possible mathematical models for the Case II diffusion of solvents with in polymers.

 

 

 

Sarah Mullet

Sarah will be entering her junior year this fall at CWRU. She is the group's webmaster and is researching experimental methods for measuring surface tension for Dr. Taylor's research group this summer.

 

 

Mike Salem

Mike graduated from CWRU in May of 2002 and is studying dynamic fluid surface tension with Dr. Taylor's research group for the summer. He will be continuing his education at Caltech in the fall.

 

 

 

In 1997 many group alumni described how they used their physics training in a rich variety of careers at the conference: "Physics: A Way of Life"

 

 

Here, former members of the group gathered on the occasion of Phil Taylor's 60th birthday.
