Research Interests
Oded Hod received his B.Sc. from the Hebrew University, Israel, in 1994 and his Ph.D. from Tel-Aviv University, Israel, in 2005. After completing a postdoctoral term at Rice University, USA, he joined Tel Aviv University in 2008. His research involves computational nanomaterials science including electronic structure, mechanical, electromechanical, and tribological properties, density functional theory, molecular electronics, and electron dynamics and thermodynamics in open quantum systems. Prof. Hod published over 90 papers in leading scientific journals including Science, Nature, Nature Mate
