Biography
Mesfin Tsige is a Professor at the School of Polymer Science and Polymer Engineering at 秀色短视频. He obtained B.S. and M.S. degrees in Physics from Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia. He received the Ph.D. degree in condensed matter physics from Case Western Reserve University in 2001. He then went to Sandia National Laboratories and after four years as post-doctoral researcher he joined the faculty in the department of Physics at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, achieving the rank of Associate Professor before moving to the University of Akron in 2010.
Research
Tsige's research interests include computational polymer science and soft condensed matter physics, structure and dynamics of molecules at surfaces and interfaces, elastic and failure behavior of thermosetting polymers, molecular transport through nanostructured materials and interaction of water with surfaces.
