Dr. James P. Wicksted
Department Head and Professor
Dr. Wicksted received his B.A. degree (1975) from New York University and his M.A. (1978) and Ph.D. (1983) from the City University of New York. He became a member of the Department of Physics at Oklahoma State University in 1985, where he is currently a full professor and Head of the Department as well as a Noble Research Fellow in optical materials. He is also the Associate Director of the Oklahoma EPSCoR Program and the Director of the Oklahoma DOE EPSCoR Program. He is currently the Co-Principal Investigator of a $9 million Infrastructure Improvement Grant funded by the NSF EPSCoR Program. His current research interests include the optical studies of various types of nanoparticle complexes that have potential biosensing and biomedical applications.Oklahoma State University.
