The Gagliardi Research Group enjoy an evening of camaraderie and pin-crashing fun as they slipped on their bowling shoes in an unforgettable outing of friendly competition! Strikes, spares, and the occasional gutter ball brought cheers and laughter echoing through the bowling alley as friendships strengthened and new bonds formed. A successful team not only thrives on shared academic pursuits but also on shared experiences of joy and amusement.
Gagliardi group welcomes four first-year graduate students for summer rotations. The students will be paired with mentors in the Gagliardi Group to gain research experience in theoretical chemistry.
The Gagliardi Group bids a bittersweet farewell to Dr. Paul Calio as he embarks on a new chapter in his career. We express our appreciation for his work and positive influence.
Alfreda Grace joins the Gagliardi Group as its new Managing Director. Welcome, Alfreda!
Matthew will use it to attend the 17th INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF QUANTUM CHEMISTRY. https://icqc2023.org
Where he will present a poster on his research on linearized pair-density functional theory.
Way to go Matt!
Daniel studies the automation of multiconfigurational methods for high-throughput computation, and uses this data to further computational methodologies with data science and machine learning. He also works with experimentalists to accelerate data-driven improvement in transition metal catalysis.
Mukunda Mandal has joined the group as a postdoc, most recently a postdoc at Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Germany
He is interested in Electronic Structure, Catalysis, and Reticular Frameworks. Welcome Mukunda!
Ariadna Fernandez, a senior computer science student at University of Illinois at Chicago, visited the Gagliardi group during the summer of 2022 as a Chicago Quantum Exchange (CQE) Open Quantum Initiative Fellow. Her latest blog reflects on her experience from discovering the opportunity on Discord to running quantum simulations. It was a pleasure having you with us, Ariadna!
The Gagliardi group is growing! We are delighted to welcome Andrea Darù as a post doc within our group and our newest graduate students: Bhavnesh Jangid and Jacob Wardzala.
