Biography

Livia Bartók-Pártay is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Warwick, specializing in Computational Chemistry. She employs a range of computer simulation tools to model atomistic molecular systems with a focus on studying the structural and thermodynamic behavior at the atomistic level. Her research interests include developing novel computational techniques to study phase transitions and predict stable crystalline structures in condensed phases. She particularly works on modeling systems of nanochemical interest, emphasizing surfaces, interfaces, adsorption phenomena, and the aggregation behavior of particles at liquid/vapor interfaces using molecular dynamics simulations. Dr. Bartók-Pártay received her PhD from Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, with a dissertation on colloid chemical applications of computer simulation methods. With previous fellowships at the University of Cambridge and University of Reading, she has published extensively in recognized journals. Her courses include teaching advanced computational techniques in chemistry at the undergraduate level, highlighting fundamental thermodynamic principles and their applications in computational modeling.
