Professor Ursula Röthlisberger, received EuChemS Lecture Award 2015 from EuChemS President, Prof. David Cole Hamilton, at the 11th European Conference on Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, Barcelona Spain, 7 September 2017.
In her lecture, Prof. Röthlisberger described how linking Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations with molecular mechanics, genetic algorithms or artificial intelligence allows computers to search huge areas of computational space and find new biomimetic systems as well as enzyme mechanisms and dyes for solar cells.
