Andrea Ferretti is senior researcher at CNR-NANO, Modena, Italy. He works in the field of condensed-matter and solid-state physics, performing ab initio simulations at the level of DFT and Green's function theory.
Current research interests focus on the first principles study of structural, electronic, and optical properties of materials, as well as in the development of advanced methodologies for the electronic structure problem, including Koopmans-compliant functionals and beyond DFT approaches in the field of theoretical spectroscopy.
He is author of about 70 scientific publications on international peer-reviewed journals. He is also a developer of scientific software (including YAMBO and QUANTUM ESPRESSO), and currently chair of the MaX-CoE executive committee.
