Prince Frederick Kwao

Developing new computational methods for challenging chemistry problems.

My research focuses on quantum algorithms for molecular electronic structure, particularly strongly correlated systems, heavy-metal complexes, and excited states.

I am a member of the Asthana Group at the University of North Dakota, led by Professor Ayush Asthana.
