Professor Jiali Gao’s paper, 'The charger transfer electronic coupling in diabatic perspective: A multi-state density functional theory study,' is listed as one of the most downloaded articles from Chemical Physics Letters in the last 90 days.
Jiali's 1996 review, "Methods and Applications of Combined Quantum Mechanical and Molecular Mechanical Potentials," was credited as an important contribution to the development of combined QM/MM methods in the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The prize was awarded to Martin Karplus, Michael Levitt, and Arieh Warshel for their crucial work on the development of multiscale models of complex chemical systems.
