Dr. David Drabold, Distinguished Professor

Dr. David Drabold, Distinguished Professor of Physics & Astronomy, is an invited speaker at the 9th International Petra School of Physics on “Nano Physics: Fundamentals and Applications” in Amman, Jordan in October.

Drabold will lecture on “Disorder on the nanoscale: ab initio simulations of amorphous materials” and “Electrons and phonons at the nanoscale: calculations in disordered materials.”

“The Petra School aims to stimulate scientific research in Jordan and neighbouring countries at an international level. It is sponsored by both the University of Jordan and Yarmouk University and cosponsored by the International Center for Theoretical Physics. The purpose of the Ninth PSP is to present the state-of-the-art of research in the Physics of Nano Structured Materials from both theoretical and application points of view. Lectures will be given by leading international experts. The PSP is intended for Ph.D., Master’s students, postdocs and researchers who are interested in the field of Nano Physics. The School also seeks to initiate a collaboration between Jordanian researchers and their peers in the region, and the world,” according to its website.
