Interrogation of Ion-Neutral Complexes by Trapped Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry and Theoretical Calculations

Abstract

This work is dedicated to the Most High God for His Love, Wisdom, and Grace. I also dedicate this to my parents, my family, and friends for all their love and support. I dedicate this to all my mentors, teachers, and professors that pushed and believed in me even when I did not. To my niece Zoë and my unborn children I pray you put God first ad know that all things are possible through Him. DEDICATION v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to acknowledge Dr. Francisco Fernandez-Lima who welcomed me in his lab and advocating for me to be accepted into the PhD program. I would also like to acknowledge Dr. Lima for introducing me to the scientific community outside of FIU. To my Lima Lab family from the past and present thanks for all the support and good times I treasure each of you and hope that we will never grow apart. To my McKnight Fellows thank you for the support and inspiration.
