Leticia González Herrero (born in Madrid) is a theoretical chemist, known for her work on molecular excited states, especially ultrafast dynamics of DNA nucleobases [1] and highly accurate simulations of transition metal complexes. [2]
Leticia González was born in Madrid, Spain and studied chemistry from 1989 to 1994 at the Autonomous University of Madrid. In 1995, she earned her master's degree from King's College London. She returned to Autonomous University of Madrid for her PhD, which she earned in 1998. [3] She then moved to the Free University of Berlin and completed her Habilitation in 2004. [4] In 2007, she was appointed Professor for Theoretical and Physical Chemistry at the University of Jena. In 2011, she became Full Professor for Computational Chemistry, Theoretical Chemistry and Scientific Computing at the University of Vienna. [5]
Sir John Anthony Pople was a British theoretical chemist who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry with Walter Kohn in 1998 for his development of computational methods in quantum chemistry.
Lars Onsager was a Norwegian-born American physical chemist and theoretical physicist. He held the Gibbs Professorship of Theoretical Chemistry at Yale University. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1968.
Rudolf Zahradník was a Czech chemist in the field of quantum chemistry and molecular spectroscopy. He held research positions at the Institute of Occupational Medicine and went on to serve as the first director of the J Heyrovsky Institute of Physical Chemistry, president of the Czech Academy of Sciences and chairman of the Learned Society of the Czech Republic, after the Velvet Revolution.
