Alison Bain, Ph.D.

Alison Bain uses her training in analytical and physical chemistry to investigate atmospheric aerosol at a fundamental level. Following a Ph.D. at McGill University and a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Bristol, Alison joined the Department of Chemistry at Oregon State University in fall of 2023. Her research uses a combination of novel single-particle techniques, macroscopic measurements and modelling to understand the unique chemical and physical properties of aerosols, which dictate how they interact with our climate.
