Feliciano Giustino

Feliciano Giustino is an Italian physicist and materials scientist who works in computational condensed matter physics. He is a professor of physics at the University of Texas at Austin, where he holds the W. A. "Tex" Moncrief, Jr. Chair in Quantum Materials Engineering and directs the Center for Quantum Materials Engineering at the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences.

Giustino's work includes first-principles theory and software for electron–phonon interactions, including development of the EPW code distributed with Quantum ESPRESSO, and studies of halide perovskite semiconductors. He authored the textbook ''Materials Modelling Using Density Functional Theory: Properties and Predictions'' (2014) and the review article "Electron–phonon interactions from first principles" in ''Reviews of Modern Physics'' (2017). He was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2020 and was named a 2025 Guggenheim Fellow in physics. Provided by Wikipedia
