Quantum chemistry programs I use/develop

• The work-horse for my research is Dalton
• I am also a co-author of the four-component program Dirac
• In collaboration with Jürgen Gauss, I have done some programming the ACESII (Mainz-Austin-Budapest version) program system.
• I have contributed to the integral package of the magnetic response DFT code ReSpect.

Administration

• I am currently head of the Department of Chemistry of the Faculty of Science at the University of Tromsø, and thus I am head of the Board of the Department, and the representative of the Department in the Board of the Faculty of Science
• I am a board member of Uninett Sigma, the company that operates the Norwegian supercomputing infrastructure
• I am a board member of TTO Nord, the Technology Transfer Office in Northern Norway
• I am board member of the NANOMAT program of the Research Council of Norway
• I am a member of an advisory committee under the Norwegian eScience program on future investments in eScience infrastructure.
• I am a board member of the Norwegian Chemical Society

Teaching

• During autumn 2006 I will participate in the teaching of KJE-1001 (General and biological chemistry), and I will be giving an advanced course in KJE-3103 (Methods of quantum chemistry)
