Biography
Andriy Kovalenko is Senior Research Officer at the National Institute for Nanotechnology since 2003, and Adjunct Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada. He earned his PhD degree (1993) in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics from Lviv State University, Bogolyubov’s Institute. He has been developing methodology and software implementation of statistical-mechanical, molecular theory of solvation, coupling it with electronic structure theories, molecular simulations, and docking protocols in a platform of predictive multiscale theory & modeling of chemical, supramolecular, and biomolecular systems constituting new advances towards a general framework of multiscale methods.
