Vittoria Fantauzzo

Vittoria was a PhD Student at the University of Sheffield and upon completion gained a postdoc role at the University of Liverpool.  Her area of research is using simulation methods (mainly molecular dynamics) to understand the nucleation and growth of alkali-metal nitrates.  After graduating and before starting her PhD, Vittoria worked as a training course Chemistry Teacher.

Vittoria obtained her Master’s degree in Materials Chemistry at the University of Palermo. Her research work was focused on calculating Hall Effect on 2D materials using DFT-based Programs.  Her work was developed in collaboration with the University of Leipzig where Vittoria gained significant knowledge with simulating the behaviour of crystalline materials.
