Biographical sketch
Fabien Pascale received his PhD in Theoretical Chemistry in 2003 from the Paris 6 University, in France and from the Turin University, in Italy. Supervised by Professor Roberto Dovesi and by Professor Philippe D'Arco, he defended a dissertation entitled "Theoretical study of silicate garnets and frequency calculation in solids". Fabien's research interests include, development in the code CRYSTAL (see the CRYSTAL web site), ab initio calculations of physical properties in solids. He has expertise in high performance computing, data analysis and management.

Research areas
CRYSTAL code development, Ab intio calculations, frequency calculation, phonon dispersion, Gibbs energy, Infrared and Raman spectrum simulation, Bulk modulus, Born charge, super-exchange constants in magnetic systems, garnets, perovskite.
