Dr. Federico Javier Hernández serves as a Lecturer in Computational Chemistry at the Centre for Chemical Research within the School of Physical and Chemical Sciences at Queen Mary University of London. His expertise centers on computational photochemistry and photophysics, with emphasis on excited-state mechanisms in complex molecular environments including aggregates, organic crystals, and solution-phase systems. Hernández completed his undergraduate studies in Physical Chemistry at the University of Córdoba (UC), Argentina, followed by a hybrid experimental and theoretical-computational PhD in Chemistry jointly awarded by UC and the University of Quilmes under Professors Gustavo Pino and Juliana Palma. His doctoral research investigated photophysical and photochemical processes relevant to Atmospheric Chemistry and Biochemistry. His laboratory focuses on elucidating fundamental mechanisms behind phenomena such as aggregation-induced emission, radiative quenching, singlet fission, ultralong organic phosphorescence, charge/exciton transport, and thermally activated delayed fluorescence. These investigations employ advanced computational methodologies including plane-wave DFT, multiscale electronic structure methods (QM:QM' and QM:MM), nonadiabatic dynamics simulations (surface hopping and Ehrenfest dynamics), and machine learning integration for materials discovery. This work directly supports rational design of functional molecules for optoelectronic applications and energy storage/conversion technologies. Analysis of Hernández's 15 most recent publications (2022-2025) reveals consistent focus on nonadiabatic dynamics in condensed phases, excited-state mechanisms in molecular aggregates, and atmospheric reaction kinetics. Key trends include development of computational benchmarks for photochemical processes, application of machine learning to photodynamics, and investigation of polaritonic effects in vibrational spectroscopy. His work bridges theoretical chemistry with practical materials design for optoelectronics. No major scientific awards or fellowships are documented in the available information. While current PhD advisees are not listed, Hernández maintains an active research group within the Centre for Chemical Research. His collaborative network spans international institutions including University College London, University of Bristol, and University of Santiago de Chile. He contributes to academic instruction through CHE 209 – Introductory Programming for Chemists and leverages his ORCID profile (https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7497-9424) for scholarly identification. His research infrastructure integrates high-performance computing with data science approaches to tackle complex photochemical problems.
