Pedro Ojeda-May (postdoc, 2011-2014; currently, Senior Research Engineer, Umeå University, Sweden)

I am currently working on a scheme to compute electrostatic interactions by using
cutoff approximations. The method could be used in Quantum Mechanical Molecular
Mechanics (QM/MM) simulations.

Previously I was working with Monte Carlo and Classical Molecular Dynamics
simulations during my Ph.D. (Universität Kassel, Germany).
