Biography

Björn Baumeier is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). His research group is part of the Centre Analysis, Scientific Computing Applications (CASA) and the Institute Complex Molecular Systems (ICMS). The group’s research is devoted to the development and application of multiscale simulation techniques for the study of electronic transport processes in soft matter. The models he works with combine techniques from computational chemistry, statistical physics, and mathematics, allowing for an analysis of the interplay between molecular electronic structure and material morphology, which are relevant to opto-electronic device properties and bio-molecular processes. His research lines include studies of (disordered) assemblies of biomolecules and super-coarse-grained modeling of soft granular materials. Typically, large-scale computer simulations are employed that link quantum chemistry, classical Molecular Dynamics, and all-atom coarse-grained levels, along with rate-based models. The evolving fields of physics, chemistry, and materials science involve fast-paced factual updates, and he emphasizes the ability to reason through these changes.
