Our Team

Massey Professor of Physics, and former Head of UCL’s Department of Physics & Astronomy (04-11), Jonathan is the leader of a large and successful research team Theoretical Atomic and Molecular Physics and Astrophysics research group (TAMPA)  studying a wide range of problems in the physics of molecules, which currently contains about 25 people. He is the author of over 500 papers in scientific literature as well as a number of popular articles and books. Jonathan has developed methods for studying electron molecule collisions for over twenty years. His group also studies the way molecules absorb and emit light with particular emphasis on processes important for astrophysics and the Earth’s atmosphere.

Scott joined Quantemol in November 2024 as R&D Project Manager and was promoted to Chief Operating Officer in March 2025. He is responsible for operational management, team leadership, and strategy implementation. Scott also serves as a key interface between external stakeholders and internal scientific research teams. He earned his PhD from the University of Reading, focusing his thesis on quantum chemical simulations of materials. Prior to this role, Scott worked at Cresset Biomolecular Discovery as a Postdoctoral Scientist and Computational Chemistry Developer, where he gained extensive experience across various aspects of scientific software development and consultancy.

Kateryna Lemishko joined Quantemol as a Junior Scientist in November 2022. She obtained her undergraduate and master’s degrees in Chemistry at V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University (Ukraine) in 2011 and 2012 respectively. In 2014, she obtained a joint European master’s degree in Theoretical Chemistry and Computational Modeling at the Autonomous University of Madrid (Spain) and the University of Perugia (Italy) under the Erasmus Mundus program. In 2020, Kateryna Lemishko completed her PhD in Biophysics at the Autonomous University of Madrid. Throughout her PhD research project carried out at the IMDEA Nanoscience Institute (Spain), she used Optical Tweezers to study at the single-molecule level the activity of the proteins involved in human mitochondrial DNA replication, as well as to study the dynamics of individual synthetic molecular shuttles under force.

Arsad Quraishi received MS (by Research) from Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, India in 2017 and Ph.D. from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in 2021, both in aerospace engineering. Further, he worked as a research fellow in astronautics group, University of Southampton, UK. His research activities are focused on numerical and experimental investigations of plasma devices and development of miniaturized space propulsion thrusters. He has extensive expertise in investigating the physics of RF plasma discharge and propulsion systems as well as in numerical modelling. He is working as a scientific programmer and developing plasma modelling software.

Oliver Bramley joined Quantemol in September 2024 as a Computational Molecular Physicist. He holds an undergraduate degree in Natural Sciences from the University of Leeds and a Master’s in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry from the University of Oxford. Recently, he earned his PhD in Theoretical Chemistry, also from the University of Leeds, where his research focused on developing a novel electronic structure theory using fermionic coherent states.

At Quantemol, Oliver is contributing his expertise to the development and enhancement of the Quantemol Electron Collision software, advancing its capabilities to meet the needs of cutting-edge research and applications.
