Jason Pearson
BiographyTitle: Assistant Professor of Chemistry
Education: BSc, Cape Breton University (2002); BTech, Cape Breton University (2003); PhD Dalhousie University (2007); PDF Australian National University (2008).
Dr. Jason Pearson is a computational chemist whose work is focused on the understanding of inter-and intra-molecular interactions and how they affect chemical properties as well as chemical reactivity. To accomplish this, his group uses and develops quantum chemical methods for electronic structure prediction and analysis.
