Professor Rondinelli attends and delivers two invited talks at the 2015 International Chemical Congress of Pacific Basin Societies (Pacifichem) meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii, from Dec 15-20, 2015.
His first talk on December 16 titled “Ferroic materials discovery guided by Bayesian principles” in the Symposium on Data Mining and Machine Learning Meets Experiment and First-Principles Simulation for Materials Discovery highlighted how to exploit local structural descriptors using statistical methods for ferroelectric discovery.
His second talk on December 18 titled “Noncentrosymmetric Metals: A Materials Class for Artificial Multiferroic Design ” in the Symposium on Synthesis, Structure and Functionalities of Ferroelectrics and Multiferroics described how to simultaneously obtain long-range magnetic order and polar displacements out of intrinsic metals with broken inversion symmetry.
