Education

Ph.D. (Gerhard-Mercator Universität Duisburg, Germany)
Dipl. Phys. (Universität Duisburg, Germany)

Research

Dr. Meyer's research work focuses on the computational modelling of materials. He is particularly interested in the structural and dynamic properties of nanoparticles and nanostructured materials. In his work he makes extensive use of the high-performance computing equipment of the Shared Hierarchical Academic Computing Network (SHARCNET).

Awards

Annual award of the University of Duisburg for outstanding Diploma thesis
