Presentation

Min grupp forskar inom teoretisk kemi, med speciellt fokus på att designa mer effektiva molekylära motorer och switchar, förstå fotokemiska reaktionsmekanismer, klargöra hur fotosensoriska proteiner fungerar samt komma underfund med enzymers katalytiska förmåga. Dessutom utvecklar vi nya sätt att modellera molekyler i exciterade tillstånd med större tillförlitlighet.

Karriärsammanfattning

Efter att ha erhållit min doktorsexamen vid Uppsala universitet 2004 och varit postdoc vid University of Sydney 2005 och Università di Siena 2006, var jag Marie Curie Fellow i Siena 2007-2008 och forskare i Uppsala 2009, innan jag 2010 tillträdde en tjänst som LiU Research Fellow vid Linköpings universitet (som en av fyra utvalda bland ~100 sökanden). I Linköping blev jag antagen som docent 2011, och befordrades därefter till universitetslektor 2014, biträdande professor 2017 och professor 2019.
