Richard Stratt is an American chemist and physicist, currently the Newport Rogers Professor of Chemistry and a Professor of Physics at Brown University. [2]
Stratt's research focuses on developing a theoretical understanding of fluid dynamics with ultrafast spectroscopy. [3] Specifically, he aims to understand the molecular mechanisms of phenomena such as solvation and vibrational relaxation, steps key to chemical reactions in liquids. [4]
Alongside his research, Stratt teaches various classes in chemistry, such as an introductory chemistry class at Brown called Equilibrium, Rate, and Structure. [5]
