WELCOME TO THE HUFFMAN GROUP

DISCOVERY • MENTORING • GROWTH

  The research of the Huffman Group focuses on analytical and atmospheric chemistry, emphasizing the development and application of new scientific approaches to addressing environmental problems. Most of our work involves atmospheric aerosols from both field and lab perspectives. Interests span from cloud nucleation and spore detection to pollen allergies and respiratory diseases. Science communication, community engagement, team-work, and curiosity are key goals through it all! 

JOIN US

  ​We are always looking for motivated graduate and undergraduate students. Graduate students are generally admitted with funding with BS or MS degrees in chemistry or related science fields. Environmental, atmospheric, aerosol research or work experience highly desired. Undergraduate students at DU may be considered from all majors or disciplines of science and  engineering and at all stages of study. To learn more about opportunities, email Dr. Huffman with interest.

DU offers support for undergraduate research through the URC funding, course credit, or work-study awards. Click above to learn more.
