Gregory DiLisi is a Professor at John Carroll University in Ohio, with appointments in both the Physics and Education departments. He holds a Ph.D. in Condensed Matter Experimental Physics from Case Western Reserve University and a B.S. from Cornell University.
- Education: B.S. in Applied and Engineering Physics (Cornell), M.S. and Ph.D. in Condensed Matter Experimental Physics (Case Western Reserve).
Dr. DiLisi's research spans two major domains: (1) experimental physics focusing on liquid crystals and complex fluids in microgravity environments, and (2) science education innovation, emphasizing case studies and problem-solving pedagogy in STEM. His publications cover topics ranging from liquid crystal viscoelasticity to forensic physics case studies.
Recent work includes Case Studies in Forensic Physics (2025) and research on liquid bridge stability across gravity extremes. His experimental physics articles frequently appear in journals like Physical Review A and Liquid Crystals, while education-focused works are featured in The Physics Teacher and The Journal of STEM Education.
- Scientific Awards: NASA Educator Fellow (Cassini, Stardust), Chair of JCU's Education Department, President of Ohio AAPT, The Physics Teacher editorial board member, Case Western Reserve's teaching excellence award.
Dr. DiLisi has secured over 40 grants as Principal Investigator, including funding from NSF, NASA, and the American Association of Physics Teachers for projects such as "Stability of Liquid Bridges under Varying Total Body Force" and "Project WISE: Women in Informal Science Education." He mentors extensively through educational outreach initiatives and serves as a consultant for STEM programs.
