Prof. Dominika Zgid’s interests are at the interface of quantum chemistry, condensed matter physics, and materials science with a major focus on designing new, systematically improvable and controlled computational methods that can be used to study strongly correlated molecules and materials. She has worked on a variety of topics, such as a molecular version of density matrix renormalization group, solvers for dynamical mean field theory using bath formulation, conserving Green’s function methods for weakly correlated systems, and the development of the self-energy embedding theory.

She is the winner of the 2018 Medal of the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science.
