Computational Chemistry is one of the research groups within the Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences at the University of Amsterdam. Our research focuses on the development and application of advanced molecular simulation and multiscale modelling methodology to obtain novel and improved understanding of the behaviour of (bio)materials, and of complex (bio)chemical and physical processes that are of technological and scientific importance.
In particular, the research focuses on
chemical reactions in complex environments;
nanoporous materials;
biomolecular conformational change and self-assembly in complex environments;
soft matter
advanced computational methods and machine learning
The knowledge gained benefits the design of next-generation materials and processes of technological and industrial importance. Keywords include rare events, first-principles, complexity, multi-scale, coarse graining, large-scale computing, data analysis, machine learning.
See below for a listing of the research groups encompassed by Computational Chemistry research at HIMS. Further information on the research activities in Computational Chemistry is also found on the group website.
