Trevor Daly

Trevor Daly is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Delaware's College of Arts & Sciences. He earned his Ph.D. from Lehigh University, where his dissertation focused on molecular-level analysis of lipid sorting and cholesterol's effects in bilayers.

His research investigates the lateral organization of lipids in model membranes, utilizing liposomes prepared via extrusion and sonication. Key areas include:

• Synthesis and characterization of phospholipids, sterols, and peptides
• Mechanisms of lipid raft formation
• Cholesterol-induced condensation in fluid bilayers
• Sorting behavior of lipidated peptides
