Perth, Western Australia
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaolo Raiteri is a Professor of Materials Science at Curtin University with over a decade of focused experience in atomistic simulations, molecular dynamics, and free energy calculations applied to geochemistry and crystal growth. Trained with a PhD from the University of Milano‑Bicocca and a postdoc under Prof. Parrinello at ETH Zurich, he has translated foundational simulation methods into predictive tools for understanding mineral and materials formation. His work has produced more than 100 publications and over 9,000 citations, reflecting both depth and sustained impact in computational materials research. Paolo has secured competitive Australian Research Council fellowships and progressed through academic ranks at Curtin, blending rigorous theory with practical modeling that informs experimental mineralogy. Less obvious but influential is his emphasis on free energy methods as a unifying lens for crystal growth phenomena, enabling quantitative links between atomistic mechanisms and macroscopic outcomes.
