Scientist at NANO-CNR since 2017. PhD in Chemistry (2006) at the University of Florence. Specialised in classical and ab-initio Molecular Dynamics simulations (, GROMACS, NAMD, LAMMPS, Quantum Espresso and CP2K) of biological and organic/inorganic systems. Expert in material/molecular modelling and in the use of advanced sampling techniques ( Metadynamics, Temperature/Hamiltonian Replica Exchange MD,, Nudge Elastic Band and Dimer Method) to study rare events (e.g., chemical reactions) and extensive conformational sampling of complex molecular systems. Expert in programming and High-Performance Computing (HPC). LB is author of > 30 publications (h=16, GS).
