I am a tenure-track assistant professor at EPFL with a joint appointment in the Maths and Materials Science institutes.
I run the Mathematics for Materials Modelling research group, where our main interest is the understanding of simulation errors in materials modelling and the development of robust black-box algorithms. In our work we take an interdisciplinary viewpoint somewhere at the boundary of mathematics, solid-state physics and computer science.
My research revolves around the quantum-chemical modelling of atoms, molecules and solids. In particular I am interested in developing efficient and reliable algorithms for the regime of high-throughput screening calculations in the solid state.
