Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences University of Amsterdam
On March 25, the Dutch Science Foundation NWO announced that the consortium “Advanced Nano-electrochemistry Institute Of the Netherlands (ANION)” will receive a Gravitation grant of 23.6 million euros for research into electrochemical processes that are important for the energy transition. The van ‘t Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences (HIMS) is one of the partners in […]
Read moreDr. Hannah Jonas has successfully defended her dissertation titled Colloidal patchy particle architectures: Simulations of accurate models in and out of equilibrium. She was promoted by Prof. Peter Bolhuis from HIMS and Prof. Peter Schall from IoP. In her thesis, she used patchy colloidal particles interacting via critical Casimir interactions as mesoscopic analogues for molecular, […]

Read moreOur collaborative paper with the Frankfurt groups lead by Robert Covino and Gerhard Hummer just appeared in Nature Computational Science. Arjun and Peter Bolhuis contributed with their modelling expertise in methane-hydrate nucleation and crystallisation. They were able to show that, for the first time, an algorithm can automatically learn the essence about a switch from […]
