O autorze

Junko Habasaki is senior scientist II at Schrödinger K.K., Japan. She graduated in chemistry from Tokyo University of Education, Japan, in 1977 and obtained her PhD in chemistry from Tokyo Metropolitan University in 1984. She was an assistant professor at Tokyo Institute of Technology and an invited professor of physics at Université de Lille 1, France (2007–2008). Dr. Habasaki retired from the Tokyo Institute of Technology in March 2020. Her research focuses on the dynamics and structures of glasses, ionic liquids, and related systems using molecular dynamics simulations. She is a coauthor of the award-winning book Dynamics of Glassy, Crystalline and Liquid Ionic Conductors and also a technical committee member of the International Commission on Glass, TC27: Atomistic Simulation.
