Gennevieve Macam

Education:

October 2009 to April 2014 University of the Philippines, Los Baños (BS Physics) 2014.08 – 2016.06

University of the Philippines, Diliman (MS Physics)

September 2015 to June 2021 National Sun Yat-sen University | Kaohsiung, Taiwan (Ph.D. Physics)

Gennevieve’s research interests in computational materials physics include: (1) topological materials such as topological insulators, quantum anomalous Hall insulators, and Dirac semi-metals, (2) 2D materials which are excellent platforms to observe and study these topological phases, (3) kagome magnets and magnetic materials, (4) impurities and single-atom impurities on surfaces,  (5) graphene molecules, and (6) multiferroic materials. She primarily uses first-principles density functional theory in her research work.
