AEROSOL CHEMISTRY, AIR QUALITY, AND HEALTH EFFECTS
The Ng research group in the School of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering at Georgia Tech performs work in aerosol chemistry, which includes the formation and evolution of atmospheric aerosols, the chemistry and life cycles (sources, processes, and fates) of ambient aerosols, the development and characterization of advanced aerosol instrumentation, and the health effects of aerosols.
CURRENT OPENINGS
- We have a postdoc opening in our group, please see details here. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
- We are recruiting graduate students to join our team in Fall 2024. If you are interested and/or have questions, please reach out to Dr. Ng.
