Biography
My area of research is theoretical and concentrates on the quantum dynamical aspect of molecular processes. Motivation for this work is driven by the desire to gain deep insight and understanding of molecular behaviour at the most detailed level. I am involved with the development of new theoretical and computational methods in quantum dynamics, and in the application of these methods to key areas of chemical interest, such as: Proton transfer in biological systems Charge and energy transfer in materials and biological systems Solvation dynamics
Research Interest
