Research

Research in the Gilbertson Group aims to inform sustainable design of existing and novel materials that 1) precludes potential unintended environmental and human health consequences and 2) maintains or exceeds functional performance goals. Gilbertson's research includes both experimental and life cycle modeling thrusts. 

A sampling of the state-of-the-art facilities here at Pitt:
Benedum Hall
Peterson Institute of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering
Materials Characterization Lab
Center for Biological Imaging
