Neepa T. Maitra is a theoretical physicist and was a Professor of Physics at Hunter College of the City University of New York and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York.[1] She now works as a professor at Rutgers, in the field of theoretical chemical physics.[2] She is most well known for her contributions to theoretical chemistry and chemical physics, especially in the development of accurate functionals in time-dependent density functional theory and correlated electron-ion dynamics.
Early life and education
Maitra was born in September of 1972 making her 52 years old, raised in New Zealand,[3] and completed her bachelor's degree in physics at the University of Otago. She went on to get her Ph.D. in physics at Harvard University in the lab of Eric "Rick" Heller[4] and postdoctoral at the University of California, Berkeley, and Rutgers University.
Awards
Maitra received an NSF Career Award for her work in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry.[5]
Maitra received an NSF Career Award for her work on Molecules in Classical and Quantized Fields.[6]
