About Me
I am Minjae Kwen.
I am Minjae Kwen, a Ph.D. student in the Quantum Science and Engineering program of Harvard University.
My primary research interest lies in computational chemistry, focusing on ab initio quantum calculations, especially Density Functional Theory (DFT). I studied reaction mechanisms on the catalyst and nonadiabatic dynamics simulations (surface hopping techniques) on photoelectrochemical devices during my undergraduate.
