Dr. Nivaldo J. Tro, Santa Barbara City College
Nivaldo Tro has been teaching college chemistry since 1990 and is currently teaching at Santa Barbara Community College. He received his PhD in chemistry from Stanford University for work on developing and using optical techniques to study the adsorption and desorption of molecules to and from surfaces in ultrahigh vacuums. He then went on to the University of California at Berkeley, where he did postdoctoral research on ultrafast reaction dynamics in solution.
Dr. Tro has been awarded grants from the American Chemical Society Petroleum Research Fund, the Research Corporation, and the National Science Foundation to study the dynamics of various processes occurring in thin adlayer films adsorbed on dielectric surfaces. He lives in Santa Barbara with his wife and their four children. In his free time, Dr. Tro enjoys mountain biking, surfing, and being outdoors with his family.
