Aaron Sup

Aaron Sup is a Lecturer in the Physics Department at Boise State University, where he has taught undergraduate introductory physics courses and upper-division courses in quantum and relativistic physics since 2008. He is affiliated with the Quantum DNA (QDNA) Research Group, supporting their Theory and Simulation team in interdisciplinary research involving quantum systems and materials science.

• Education: B.S. in Physics (Honors) from University of California, Santa Barbara (accelerated College of Creative Studies program, completed in 3 years); M.S. in Materials Science from Boise State University (2004).

His research focuses on theoretical modeling in quantum physics and condensed matter systems, including Bose-Einstein condensates, chiral PVBA molecules, and nanoscale semiconductor devices like MoSFETs. He combines physics and mathematics to develop simulations for energy-band structures and molecular interactions.

As part of QDNA, he contributes to collaborative projects at the intersection of quantum mechanics and DNA-based nanotechnology. His work spans both pedagogical innovations in physics education and computational modeling for advanced materials.
