About the Group:

We are a computational chemistry group in the Department of Chemistry at Howard University. Our group is interested in developing and employing computational tools based on statistical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and machine learning to study fundamental details of molecular properties in complex environments. We use the insight learned from molecular-level details to develop rational design strategies for new materials and technologies. Specific areas of current interest include understanding concentrated electrolytes and solid-electrolyte interfaces relevant to basic energy science, intermetallic nano-particle alloys for electrocatalysis,  rare-earth nickelate materials relevant to neuromorphic computing, and air-water interfaces relevant to atmospheric chemistry. 

About Principal Investigator:

Mirza Galib is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Howard University. He received his B.S. and M.S. in Applied Chemistry from the University of Dhaka (Bangladesh), and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Alberta (Canada). He also worked as a post-doctoral research associate at Pacific Northwest National Lab, UC Berkeley, and the University of Louisville. In 2022, he has started his independent career as an Assistant Professor in the Chemistry Department at Howard University.
