About Me
Jacob Gayles started his research as an undergraduate, that focused on electrical transport in DNA molecules and computational studies of semiconductors. He received his Ph.D. in Physics from Texas A&M University in 2016. During his doctoral studies, he moved to the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz to research computational and theoretical condensed matter physics, for both chiral magnetic systems and spin-orbit torques. During his Post-Doctoral fellowship, he studied topological magnetic systems at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids in Dresden, Germany. While at the Max Planck Institute, he led the on Skyrmionics working group. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor of Physics and the leader of the Quantum Chiraltronics Group at the ßÙßÇÂþ» in Tampa, Florida.
