Dr. Carson Meredith received his B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Georgia Tech in 1993 and his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from University of Texas, Austin, in 1998. From 1998 to 2000 he was an NRC postdoctoral associate at NIST (National Institute of Standards & Technology), in the Polymers Division. Since 2000 he has been a faculty member in the School of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering at Georgia Tech, in Atlanta, GA, where he is now Professor and Associate Chair for Graduate Studies.
Prof. Meredith’s research focuses on advanced materials characterization, with an emphasis on structures, transport properties, and adhesion in particle- and fiber-based materials with high interfacial surface area. Projects include development of high-throughput screening methods, nanocomposite membranes for gas separations and CO2 capture, and development of bio-inspired adhesives. His work has been featured on the covers of Macromolecules, Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics, the Materials Research Bulletin, and Macromolecular Materials & Engineering.
