معرفی
Dr. Kasimir Gregory is a computational chemist lecturing at the University of New England's School of Science and Technology. With a Ph.D. from the University of Newcastle, his research examines specific ion effects using quantum chemical methods and molecular dynamics simulations. His work quantifies Hofmeister series behavior in aqueous and non-aqueous solvents.
Research focuses on developing first-principles alternatives to empirical solvent parameters and creating molecular dynamics repositories of solvated ions. Current projects include thermodiffusion optimization for membrane-free desalination and plastic degradation enzymes.
