Joonho named a Laureate of the 2023 Blavatnik Regional Awards for Young Scientists!
We are thrilled to share that Joonho had been named a Laureate of the 2023 Blavatnik Regional Awards for Young Scientists. Laureates are awarded $30,000 each and two Finalists in each disciplinary category are awarded $10,000 each in unrestricted funds. In 2023, there were 121 nominations from 28 academic institutions in the New York metropolitan region. Joonho was recognized for "development of state-of-the-art quantum chemistry algorithms for classical and quantum computers. Lee’s work aims to provide a microscopic understanding of emergent functional materials, including solar cells, electrocatalysts for the hydrogen economy, and optoelectronics." See the full article here.

Tong and Zeyu join the group!
Experienced postdocs Tong Jiang from Tsinghua University and Zeyu Zhou from the University of Pennsylvania are joining the group. Tong will apply his expertise on numerical methods for electron correlation problems, while Zeyu is working on understanding various approximations for polaron transport in solids. We are happy to have Tong and Zeyu onboard! Monitor their future works.

The group officially starts!
April 2023
Adrian joins the group!
After a productive QSE rotation, Adrian decides to join the Lee Group! He will be thinking about the frontier of quantum advantage with the quantum-classical quantum Monte Carlo (QC-QMC) algorithm and other classical applications of Auxiliary Field Quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC). Welcome Adrian! Get posted on his future works.
December 2022
Artur and Hieu join the group!
We are extremely pleased to welcome Artur and Hieu! Artur is computing electron-phonon matrix elements from first principles, while Hieu is working on testing the boundaries of the celebrated variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) approach. Get updated on their future works.
