Computational & Physical Organic Chemistry

Our research focus is understanding molecular interactions, in particular in transition states. This allows us to understand, predict, and manipulate chemical reactivity and selectivity.

​

To achieve this goal, we are using and developing energy decomposition methods. These allow us to unearth different contributions to interaction energies and produce insights that lead to generalizable models. 

​

Our work is highly collaborative and we are currently working together with 7 research groups to solve problems in fields ranging from the chemistry of Lanthanides and Actinides to the field of bioorthogonal chemistry.
