TYC Junior Research Fellow

The Thomas Young Center awards me one of their Junior Research Fellowships. This will help me in continuing and strengthen my collaborations with research groups in London that focus on the theory and simulation of materials. Specifically my work with Sarah L. Price on ““Crystal structure prediction of flexible pharmaceutical-like molecules: Use of density functional tight-binding as an intermediate optimization method” and with Angelos Michaelides on “Fast and accurate quantum Monte-Carlo for molecular crystals” will be significantly enhanced by the direct work of the involved researcher in London.
