The Paesani Research Group

Laboratory for Theoretical and Computational Chemistry at UC San Diego  

We are a theoretical chemistry group working at the intersection of quantum chemistry, statistical mechanics, and computer science.

We are interested in developing new methods and software to predict the behavior of complex molecular systems at different length and time scales.
