Dr. Scott Danielsen

Biography

Scott Danielsen is an Assistant Professor at the School of Materials Science and Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He completed his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering at the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2018 and earned a B.S.E. in Chemical Biomolecular Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania in 2014. He has extensive postdoctoral experience, having spent five years as a postdoctoral associate at Duke University and as a visiting scholar at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine from 2019 to 2023. His research group focuses on developing a combination of theoretical, computational, and experimental methods to understand structure–property–processing relationships in soft materials. His primary research interests lie in the dynamics of nonideal structured fluids, particularly polymer gels and biological fluids, with an emphasis on designing new materials and processing conditions for functional materials.
