Dr. Benjamin Normann Frandsen joins the Hylleraas Centre in Oslo as an externally funded Researcher. Benjamin will explore atmospheric chemistry in extra-terrestrial atmospheres with a unique set of computational-chemistry methods, including density-functional theory, coupled-cluster models, and multi-reference methods.

Benjamin has received two grants to support his research. A postdoctoral fellowship from Ruth och Nils-Erik Stenbäcks Stiftelse in Finland, supervised by Thomas Bondo Pedersen, and a Researcher Project for Early Career Scientists from the Research Council of Norway entitled “Molecular Atmospheric Chemistry on Alien Worlds”.
Benjamin starts at Hylleraas Centre in Oslo on September 1.
Welcome to the team, Benjamin!
