Interests

Research

• My research centers on theoretical and computational chemical physics with applications to material science, nanotechnology, and biology. I develop new conceptual theoretical approaches as well as computer codes for modeling real systems. Some of my research is done in close collaboration with experimentalists. 

Currently I work on theory of quantum transport.
