Personal statement

I obtained my PhD in Nanophysics and Photonics from the University of Grenoble Alpes, under the supervision of Prof. Didier Mayou and Prof. Asghar Asgari. My doctoral research focused on 鈥淣onequilibrium Modelling of Solar Cells: Quantum Effects at the Nanoscale Level.鈥� During my PhD, I also joined the group of Prof. Matthias Ernzerhof at the University of Montr茅al as a Visiting Scholar, where I was introduced to quantum chemistry through one of the leading scientists in the field.

Driven by my interest in cross-disciplinary and multi-methodology research, I then joined the group of Prof. Alessandro Troisi at the Materials Innovation Factory, University of Liverpool, as a Postdoctoral Research Associate, working on 鈥淐omputer-Aided Materials Discovery.鈥� During my postdoctoral career, I was the first to demonstrate the feasibility of high-throughput virtual screening by combining chemical databases with advanced physical models. This work became an important foundation for the DiaDEM Materials Discovery Platform (https://www.diadem-project.eu/).

A defining milestone in my journey was being recognised through the L鈥橭r茅al鈥揢NESCO For Women in Science Rising Talents Award, which celebrates women researchers whose work advances scientific knowledge and contributes to addressing global challenges. For me, this recognition was a powerful encouragement to keep pushing boundaries and to continue developing research that connects fundamental science with real-world impact.

In December 2022, I started a new chapter at the 吃瓜tv as a Chancellor鈥檚 Fellow in Materials and Computational Chemistry, within the Department of Pure and Applied Chemistry.
