Associate Professor Amir Karton leads the theoretical and computational chemistry group at the School of Molecular Sciences, TheUniversity of Western Australia. He currently holds an Australian Research Council Future Fellowship. His research interests are focused on the development of quantum chemical theory for the calculation of highly accurate chemical properties and the application of these procedures to problems of chemical structure, mechanism, and design in a range of chemical disciplines, ranging from biochemistry to nano-chemistry. These include the computational design of graphene-based functional materials, elucidating the mechanisms by which enzymes catalyze molecular transformations, and simulations of atmospherically relevant chemical reactions. Amir received several prestigious awards including the American Chemical Society (ACS) Journal of Physical Chemistry – PHYS Division Lectureship Award (2020), the RACI Physical Chemistry Division Lectureship (2019), The Le Fèvre Medal from the Australian Academy of Science (2018), and the Vice-Chancellor’s Early Career Investigators Award (2016). Amir serves as the current Chair of the RACI Inclusion and Diversity Committee (RIDC) and shares his expertise as Editor of Chemical Physics Letters and Associate Editor of the Australian Journal of Chemistry.
