Ping Research Group (Ph.D. Student Recruitment)

University of California, Santa Cruz

Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry

The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) invites applications for the position of one Ph.D. student in Theoretical/Computational Materials Chemistry, under the direction of Dr. Yuan Ping.

Biography:

Dr. Yuan Ping started as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of California, Santa Cruz from July, 2016. Before joining UCSC, she was a Materials Postdoc Fellow at California Institute of Technology- a DOE energy hub - Joint Center for Artificial Photosynthesis (JCAP) under supervision of Prof. Prof. William A. Goddard III from August, 2013. Prior to joining JCAP, she obtained her Ph.D. at the University of California, Davis under supervision ofProf. Giulia Galli (currently at University of Chicago). Her undergraduate study was at the University of Science and Technology of China (Class 0303, 2003-2007).

Research:

Dr. Yuan Ping’s research interest focuses on developing and employing theoretical and computational methods (including Density Functional Theory, Many Body Perturbation Theory GW/BSE, Ab-initio Molecular Dynamics) to understand and predict optical, carrier transport, and catalytic properties of materials from first-principles calculations, for energy conversion and quantum information applications. More information can be found at:

Dr. Yuan Ping has published papers in various top-tier peer reviewed journals, including Nature Materials, Nature Communications, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Chemical Society Reviews, and Energy & Environmental Science in the past five years. She has successfully established her own independent research group in the past year at UCSC.

Ping research group is part of UCSC materials science initiative, which is an interdisciplinary program between physics, chemistry and electrical engineering, starting from 2015. Exciting new collaborative research is in progress.

Introduction of the University of California, Santa Cruz:

University of California, Santa Cruz is one of ten University of California campuses. It is less than an hour drive away from Silicon Valley, and is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean and redwoods.
