Manuel Brando

Manuel Brando is a Group Leader in the Physics of Quantum Materials department at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids in Dresden, Germany. He leads research in the Extreme Conditions Group, focusing on quantum phenomena in strongly correlated electron systems.

Research Interests:

• Strongly correlated electron systems
• Quantum phase transitions and non-Fermi-liquid phenomena
• Heavy fermions and unconventional superconductivity
• Quantum materials under extreme conditions (low temperature, high pressure, high magnetic fields)

His work lies at the intersection of experimental and theoretical condensed matter physics, aiming to uncover novel quantum states and phase transitions in advanced materials.
