Stefano Battaglia

Senior Researcher

About

I am a researcher in quantum chemistry with a background in computational science. My work has mostly focused on developing and applying multireference electronic-structure methods, and contributing to several quantum chemistry software packages. Throughout my career, I have investigated excited-state processes in molecules and materials, as well as developed hybrid quantum-classical embedding approaches. My current research brings this expertise to the development of deep-learning exchange-correlation functionals, focusing on strongly correlated systems such as molecules far from equilibrium, open-shell species, and transition-metal compounds.
