My doctoral thesis Entropy as a tool for crystal discovery has been recognized with the Distinction 8% prize by EPFL. Each year this prize rewards the best 8% theses in each deparment. I am grateful to EPFL and the Department of Materials Science and Engineering (EDMX) for this distinction! It is a great honor and pleasure!

Our new paper Calculation of phase diagrams in the multithermal-multibaric ensemble published in the Journal of Chemical Physics has been chosen as Editor's Pick. The article introduces a new order parameter and uses a trick to calculate entire coexistence lines in a single molecular dynamics simulation. You can read it here .

Check out the amazing scientific highlight about our last article on the prediction of polymorphism! Thanks Fiorien Bonthuis and NCCR MARVEL.
