DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWe discuss recent progress in scoping design rules
  for so called sustainable materials\, namely solids and molecules that ma
 y eventually be useful to develop sustainable energy sources. We use simul
 ations at the atomistic level\, based on the basic laws of quantum mechani
 cs\, coupled with various methods rooted in statistical mechanics. We focu
 s on several examples highlighting the successes and open problems of such
  simulations: oxides for photoelectrodes and low power electronics\, and o
 rganic semiconductors for third-generation organic emitting diodes.\n\n \n
 \n \n\n \n\nBio:\n\nGiulia Galli is the Liew Family Professor of Electroni
 c Structure and Simulations in the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineerin
 g and in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Chicago. She als
 o holds a Senior Scientist position at Argonne National Laboratory\, where
  she is the director of the Midwest Integrated Center for Computational Ma
 terials.\n\nShe is an expert in the development of theoretical and computa
 tional methods to predict and engineer material and molecular properties u
 sing quantum simulations. (https://galligroup.uchicago.edu/).\n\nShe is a 
 member of the National Academy of Sciences\, the American Academy of Arts 
 and Science\, and the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science\,
  and a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science a
 nd of the American Physical Society. Her recognitions include the Theory A
 ward from the Materials Research Society\, the David Adler Award in Materi
 als Physics from the American Physical Society (APS)\, the Aneesur Rahman 
 Prize for Computational Physics from the APS\, the Feynman Nanotechnology 
 Prize in Theory\, and the Tomassoni-Chisesi award from La Sapienza Univers
 ity in Italy. In 2022 she received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the
  foundation of Italian and Scholars of North America.\n
