Cynthia Goh is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Toronto. Her research focuses on the investigation of phenomena at the nanoscale, typically in the range of tens to thousands of angstroms. This research aims to provide insights into the fundamental equations that govern the transition from molecular scales to macroscopic behavior. Her studies primarily examine interfaces, delving into the understanding of how surface and bulk molecular interactions occur and change. Among her various projects, she explores the assembly mechanisms of collagen fibers and paired helical filaments associated with Alzheimer’s disease, seeking to identify the structural features of these filaments. Additionally, her work includes direct studies of interfaces using methods that consider surface sensitivity and non-linear optical effects. Cynthia Goh’s interdisciplinary approach also encompasses biological systems, polymers, colloids, and minerals, integrating techniques across physics, chemistry, and biology.
