Research interests:

I work on method development with a primary focus on the Random Phase Approximation (RPA). RPA is a fully non-empirical post-Kohn-Sham method and it stands on the fifth and highest rung of Perdew's Jacob's ladder. In my research I focus on improving the computational efficiency as well as accuracy of RPA in the quest of making it the method of choice in computational applications.
