About

Abigail Knight is an Assistant Professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Her research focuses on the structure-function relationships in sequence-controlled copolymers, thermoresponsive copolymers, and self-assembly mechanisms of diblock oligomeric peptide-polymer amphiphiles. She has contributed to the understanding of noncovalent interactions in amphiphilic single-chain polymer nanoparticles and the design principles for protein-mimetic catalysts. Professor Knight's work emphasizes the development of high-throughput workflows for analyzing soft materials.
