To date, only a few syntheses have been scaled up to the gram-scale, and yet they still have poor quality control \cite{Jana_2005,Lohse_2013}.  % Hero narrative  This study will remedy this gap in the literature by elucidating the role of structure-directing agents using molecular dynamics simulation, in which explicit solvent is computationally feasible and observations in the atomic resolution can be made.  % Concrete and unmistakable statement of my research project  Using enhanced sampling methods, I will provide quantitative evidence that will support or refute the facet selective adsorption hypothesis and further examine its implications.
