Vesselin Velev

Vesselin

After graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Physics from the University of Illinois, Vesselin made the long trek from the cornfields of central Illinois to Northwestern University to begin his graduate studies in the Department of Physics and Astronomy in the fall of 2011.

Research:

Currently working on numerical simulation of micro-resonators.
