Welcome

Welcome to my personal website. I am full professor at the Department of Chemistry, University of Antwerp, and affiliated to the research group PLASMANT.

My current research topics include atomic scale modeling and simulation of gas-surface and plasma-surface interactions, including plasma catalysis, the growth of carbon nanotubes and astrochemistry, as well as the application and development of long-time scale simulations and methodologies. We employ various techniques, including classical molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo and force bias Monte Carlo, density functional theory (DFT) calculations, QM/MM simulations, nudged elastic band (NEB), hyperdynamics and metadynamics.

You can find more information on my research interests and topics, as well as recent research highlights and an updated publication list on my non-departmental website.
