Christoph Kreisbeck earned his Ph.D. in physics at the University of Regensburg (Germany) in 2012. Afterwards, he was a postdoctoral associate at the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Harvard University (USA). His research interest lie in the modeling or transport phenomena in mesoscopic systems, with applications ranging from semiconductor nanoelectronics to dissipative energy transfer in light harvesting proteins. To tackle the computational complexity of realistic simulations, he employs high-performance computing and develops efficient algorithms for Graphics Processing Units (GPUs).
