Ruminations on emergent phenomena in condensed phases of matter
About Me
- Ross H. McKenzie
- I have fun at work trying to use quantum many-body theory to understand electronic properties of complex materials. I am married to the lovely Robin and have two adult children and a dog, Priya (in the photo). I also write an even more personal blog Soli Deo Gloria [thoughts on theology, science, and culture]
Introduction
Welcome to my thoughts about quantum many-body science, especially at the interface of condensed matter physics, chemistry, and molecular biology.
Other themes include doing better science, job advice, teaching, mental health, and humour.
