Peter DeCarlo
Now: Postdoctoral Researcher, Laboratory for Atmospheric Chemistry at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI), Switzerland, with an NSF International Postdoc Fellowship

Ph.D. in Atmospheric Sciences , Aug. 2002-Dec. 2007
B.S. Biochemistry University of Notre Dame
Research: Integration of data from aerosol instruments; development of advanced aerosol instrumentation
Interests: My interests are varied and eclectic. When I am not busy in the lab I am tirelessly working for peace and justice in the world. Usually, however, when I do have free time I spend it in the mountains trying my hand at whatever mountain activity is in season.
