Christy F. Landes is the Kenneth S. Pitzer-Schlumberger Chair and Professor of Chemistry, Electrical & Computer Engineering, and Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering, and the Director of the Center for Adapting Flaws into Features (CAFF) at Rice University. The Landes Group comprises chemists, applied physicists, and engineers who develop next-generation tools to image dynamics at soft interfaces at the limit of a single event. Her group uses super-resolved chemical knowledge to devise new methods and models for controlling macroscale processes such as protein separations and photocatalysis. The group also uses advanced signal and image processing methods to improve accuracy and precision in low-signal measurements.
