I am interested in Quantum Chemistry of large molecular aggregates.
Bartosz Błasiak was born in Poland. In 2012 he received his M.S. degree in Wrocław University of Science and Technology (WUST) under the supervision of Prof. Robert W. Góra, and in 2016 his Ph.D. from Korea University in Seoul under the supervision of Prof. Minhaeng Cho. After a short post-doc in Korea, he moved to Frankfurt/Main and worked as a post-doc at the Institute for Biophysics in Goethe University (Frankfurt/Main) in Jens Bredenbeck's research group. From November 2017 he is a member of the Department of Physical and Quantum Chemistry (WUST). His research interests concentrate on the development of Quantum Chemistry of large molecular aggregates, studying the solvation effects on molecular properties and Vibrational Spectroscopy.
