Emil Bozin

Emil received his PhD from Michigan State University in 2003.  Between 2004 and 2008 Emil worked as MSU as a postdoc.  Since 2008 he has been at Columbia University  and Brookhaven National Lab.

Emil's scientific interests include investigating the relationship between the local structure and the physical properties in complex functional materials. He is involved in the characterization of nanoscale inhomogeneities and establishing the role that these play in systems such as strongly correlated electron systems and related compounds with colossal responses, charge density wave materials, novel thermoelectrics, and other structurally disordered and crystallographically-challenged materials. On the technical side, his interests include pushing the boundaries of the available applicable tools and development of new ones for structural studies on a nanoscale.
