Anna Galler

Anna Galler is a Research Fellow at the Institute of Theoretical Physics - Computational Physics, Graz University of Technology (TU Graz), since 2024. She has held prestigious fellowships including FWF Elise-Richter and Schrödinger Fellowships, and has been a Visiting Researcher at Georgetown University and Max Planck Institute.

• Research Focus: Electronic structure of correlated materials, light-matter interaction in solids, quantum entanglement, and historical/philosophical aspects of quantum mechanics.
• Key Projects: FWF-funded project 'FWF - TMDCorr' on transition metal dichalcogenides in non-equilibrium.

Her work spans computational material science and quantum many-body physics, with method development in diagrammatic DMFT extensions. Recent publications explore 2D materials, ultrafast optical excitations, and rare-earth semiconductors.

• Scientific Awards: FUTURA Career Award (2020), FWF Erwin-Schrödinger Fellowship (2019-2021), Promotio sub auspiciis Praesidentis (2018), and Proexcellentia scholarships.
• Education: PhD in Physics (TU Wien, 2017), BSc and MSc in Technical Physics (TU Wien), BA in Philosophy (Universität Wien).
