Welcome to the Segalman Group at UC Santa Barbara!

Professor Segalman discusses the group's research interests in this video produced by the UCSB College of Engineering:

We welcome you to look at our research interests and publications for a more in-depth look at what our group does. The video below gives a brief introduction to the group and our current research.

The Segalman Group is proud to participate in collaborative research groups at UCSB and across many other institutions:
