Prebiotic chemical discovery through quantum chemistry
In this PhD, we will use quantum chemical methods to study chemistry relevant to the origin of life, with a particular focus on processes occurring on exoplanets. Quantum chemical computations will be used to study structures, thermodynamics, and reaction paths for chemistry involving simple nucleotide molecules and inorganic surfaces.
