Computational Materials Science – Computational Materials Science

Welcome to the Computational Materials Science Research Group!

The Computational Materials Science research group is led by Dr. Anna Garden, Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Otago, situated in Dunedin, New Zealand. Our research is focussed on using a computational approach to investigate catalysis of small molecule reactions on both extended and nanoparticle surfaces. For more information on recent and current research projects, please see here.

Applications from M.Sc. and Ph.D. students are always welcome and external funding is available for suitable candidates. Please contact me for more details.
