DImEnsION @ Warwick: a research group led by Dr. G.C. Sosso, focussing on Molecular Simulations of Disordered Systems and Phase Transitions.
We use Computational Methods to investigate the functional properties of systems of practical relevance, such as water and ice or amorphous solids of interest for electronic devices.
I am a computational scientist, chiefly interested in the physical chemistry of condensed matter, from supercooled liquids to biological interfaces. My vision is to understand the chemistry, the functional properties and the phase transitions of different classes of systems, from metallic glasses to cellular membranes. My approach consists in performing fundamental research using computer simulations, aimed at rationalise, complement and guide experiments and applications.

Gabriele teaches Statistical Mechanics – that branch of physics connecting the microscopic world (stuff best dealt with via Quantum Mechanics) and the macroscopic world (stuff described by Thermodynamics).
Incidentally, Statistical Mechanics also represents the theoretical foundations of much of the computational work taking place at DImEnsION @ Warwick…
On top of that, Gabriele will soon lecture about Thermodynamics as well, and he will also deliver part of a module ominously named “Advanced Computational Chemistry”.
Everything relevant to the Statistical Mechanics module can be found on Moodle Warwick, but check out our Teaching page for selected material…
Most importantly, do remember…
A number of opportunities to join DImEnsION @ Warwick are presently availabe:
