Antonia Statt did both her graduate and undergraduate work in Physics with Prof. Binder at the University of Main in Germany. After that she moved to Princeton, NJ as a PCCM postdoctoral researcher with Prof. Panagiotopoulos in the Chemical and Biological Engineering Department.

Our lab’s research focuses on understanding fundamental phenomena in soft matter systems, motivated by challenges in energy, environment, and technology. We are particularly interested in crystallization and aggregation of polymers and colloidal systems, and non-equilibrium effects like flow or evaporation. Our work integrates empirical model development, statistical mechanics, applications of machine learning techniques, and highly efficient GPU-accelerated simulations.
