Phil recently visited the SUNCAT group at Stanford headed by Prof. Jens Nørskov. He stayed for a week learning advanced computational techniques to model CO2 reduction and oxygen evolution catalysts. Michal Bajdich and Leanne D. Chen were wonderful hosts and mentors teaching Phil some new first-principles techniques and how to model proper thermodynamics of materials.
