Chenghao Liu
I am a student of chemistry and computer science. I am in the fourth year of my Ph.D. study at McGill University (2019-present) supervised by Prof. Dmytro (Dima) Perepichka, and I am concurrently undergoing an internship at Mila with Prof. Yoshua Bengio. I am a Vanier scholar (2021-present). I obtained my BSc (Hons) from McGill University (2016-2019) working with Prof. Perepichka, and earlier with Prof. Reinhard Hesse in geology. I have also been supervised by Dr. Jean-Michel Sellier at Mila. Before undergraduate studies, I spent my younger years in Germany, the Netherlands, and China.


My current focus is on organic materials with strong electronic interactions: how does uncharted physical properties emerge from molecular and supramolecular structures, and their design from the infinite chemical space. In particular, I am interested in:
