Ben is the Distinguished Professor of Physical Chemistry, Polymer Physics, and Material Science in the Department of Chemistry at State University of New York, Stony Brook. Ben actively teaches at Stony Brook as well as continues to conduct ground breaking research. The main thrust of his recent activities is closely related to materials chemistry,
including polymer physics and colloid science. Ben is particularly interested in solving fundamental problems that have useful applications of benefit to society, like Liquidity’s unique nanofiber membranes. Ben is interested in the integration of mechanical and spectroscopic measurements as well as processing methods, that can stretch, spin, and draw fibers. A world-class instrumentation facility has been established, specifically to investigate materials research problems, including nanocomposites of modified carbon nanotubes/nanofibers with polymers, molecular filters, and modifications of nanostructured materials. Ben has a B.S., Magna Cum Laude, from St. Norbert College and a Ph.D. from Cornell University.
