Jennifer (Jenny) Coulter
I’m a Flatiron Research Fellow at the Center for Computational Quantum Physics (CCQ).
Previously:
- Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Harvard Unversity in 2023 (Kozinsky group).
- Department of Energy (DOE) Computational Science Graduate Fellow (CSGF) from 2017-2021.
- B.S. in physics from Rutgers University in 2017.
Interests
My research aims to accurately predict electron-phonon interactions and transport properties of materials. In particular:
- Understanding how electronic correlations can to alter electron-phonon effects in materials
- Developing novel methods for transport predictions
- Investigating electronic transport in specific materials
I’m also the main developer of the Phoebe code (a high-performance framework for Phonon and Electron Boltzmann transport Equation solutions).
- You can learn more about Phoebe through its documentation or the manuscript.
- For questions about using Phoebe, open a git discussion or email me directly.
