Biography

Veronique Van Speybroeck is full professor at the Ghent University and head of the Center for Molecular modeling (http://molmod.ugent.be). Her expertise lies in first principle kinetics and molecular dynamics simulations of complex chemical transformations in nanoporous materials. The research is strongly driven by the ambition to model as close as possible realistic materials/processes. To this end, she is recently exploring methods to also model spatially extended nanostructured materials, including defects and other spatial heterogeneities.
She has a record of significant contributions in the field of modeling nanoporous materials for catalysis, adsorption, e.g. zeolites, Metal-Organic Frameworks, Covalent Organic Frameworks; all applications are inspired and performed in close synergy with experimental groups.
