Max Planck Director from Hamburg elected member of the “European Academy of Sciences”
Angel Rubio is Director of the Theory Department at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter at CFEL in Hamburg. His research interests include the theory and the modeling of electronic and structural properties of condensed matter, and the development of new theoretical tools to investigate the electronic response of nanostructures, biomolecules and hybrid materials to external electromagnetic fields. His group is one of the worldwide references in the field of simulation and modeling of materials, nanostructures, and biomolecules.
Angel Rubio is Fellow of several learned societies. Since 2004, he is Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS) and since 2010 Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). In 2014, he was elected Foreign Associate Member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences (NAS).

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
