Daniel Roca-Sanjuán 18th International Congress on Photobiology 2024

Daniel Roca-Sanjuán

Daniel Roca-Sanjuán received his Ph.D. degree in 2009 for his quantum-chemistry studies on DNA photochemistry carried out at the Quantum Chemistry of the Excited State (QCEXVAL) group of Profs. Manuela Merchán and Luis Serrano-Andrés, Institut de Ciència Molecular, Universitat de València (Spain). In 2010, he moved to the group of Prof. Roland Lindh at the Department of Chemistry−Ångström, Uppsala University (Sweden), with a Marie Curie postdoctoral grant, where he researched on the development and application of quantum-chemical methods with the MOLCAS program to the bioluminescence and chemiluminescence phenomena. In 2013, he returned to the QCEXVAL group first as a postdoctoral “Juan de la Cierva” fellow and next as a “Ramón y Cajal” fellow (tenure track researcher). He has done some stays at the groups of Prof Isabelle Navizet (Univ. Gustave Eiffel, France) and Prof Michele Parrinello (Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, Italy) to learn molecular dynamics, enhanced sampling and mixed quantum and classical mechanics methodologies. Since 2022, he is Associate Professor, leads the QCEXVAL group and focuses on methods developments and applications of Multiconfigurational Quantum Chemistry in photo- and chemi-induced phenomena.
