Dr. Burling, Assistant Professor of Physics, comes to Carthage
from the Department of Biochemistry at Weill Medical College
of Cornell University, where he served as the director of the
X-ray Crystallography Core Facility. Before his work at Cornell,
he was a postdoctoral fellow in the Brunger Lab at Yale University,
examining problems in computational crystallography, and protein
purification and crystallization. He earned a B.A. from Grinnell
College and a M.S. in physics from Iowa State University. A

| Kevin
Crosby |
|
Dr. Kevin Crosby, studies materials
science and surface effects. He is broadly interested in
the physics of disordered materials, and in the simulation of
materials under mechanical and electrical stress. Computational
physics research at Carthage makes use of molecular dynamics
calculations and density functional theory to understand the
behavior of atomic surfaces and boundaries. Dr. Crosby is also
the Carthage College 3-2
Engineering program advisor, Chair of the Computer
Science Department, and Chair of the Division of Natural
Sciences. Reach him at 262-551-5855. For Term Schedules, visit

| Jean
Quashnock |

|
Dr. Jean Quashnock studies the formation of the Universe using
data from the world’s newest telescopes. He studies quasars
and the space between the Earth and the farthest reaches of
the Universe. He analyzes the complicated patterns of light
emitted by quasars to discern what lies between the quasars
and us. He also advises our very active Society of Physics Students
chapter. Reach him at 262-551-5391. |
