Anas Yousef
I work at the intersection of computational materials physics, first-principles modelling, scientific education, and public science communication.
My research focuses on understanding how atomic structure governs electronic, optical, magnetic, thermoelectric and transport behavior in functional materials — translating quantum-scale calculations into physically meaningful insight.

About
Research with a clear physical story.
I am a physicist and lecturer with a research profile centered on materials physics across computation and experiment. My work combines density functional theory and first-principles modelling with experimental materials characterization. I study how crystal structure, composition and defects shape electronic, optical, magnetic, electrical, thermoelectric and transport properties, and I use experiment–theory comparison wherever it strengthens the physical interpretation.
Alongside research, I teach physics and communicate science through digital media. I am interested not only in obtaining numerical results, but in connecting calculations to the underlying physical mechanisms and presenting them in a way that is useful to researchers, students and wider scientific audiences.
My academic activity includes journal publications, research collaboration, conference participation, poster presentations, scientific visits, and educational content in Arabic and English.
