Lecturers

The SoSMod lecturers will give courses on quantum modeling principles and their applications to explain, complement or predict experimental properties. Some of them are quantum chemists by education, others started their career with experimental research and developed their modeling skills afterwards. With their different expertises and backgrounds, they will offer guidance adapted to your individual research interest.
