Lotfi BELKHIRI was born in 1966 (Constantine, Algeria) and obtained his DSc degree in theoretical chemistry in 2005 under the supervision of Professor Abdou Boucekkine (Rennes 1, France). He is currently full Professor of Theoretical Chemistry at the faculty of Sciences of Mentouri University of Constantine 1 and Head of the Theoretical & Computational Chemistry (TCC) Team within the Laboratory of Mathematics, Physics, and Subatomic LPMS. He is also an associate professor at the Research Center on Pharmaceutical Sciences (CRSP) of Constantine and Supervisor of the In Silico Drug Design Group. His main field of research is the study of the electronic structure and physicochemical properties of heavy metals and f-element-containing organometallic systems using relativistic DFT techniques. His group is also dealing with the bioactivity and biopharmaceutical properties of molecules (potent drugs), study explored by using the Computed Aided Drug Design (CADD) tools i.e., QSAR, Molecular Docking, and ADMET models. Professor Lotfi Belkhiri has been master’s and Doctorate’s training coordinator in Theoretical & Computational Chemistry from 2013-2019 at the UMC and was mentor of several doctoral works, Magisters and Masters In computational organoactinides chemistry and coauthor of 35 international publications and two book chapter and review, as well as a lecturer in scientific conferences. He was a supervisor of two European projects and head of 7 national research projects (CNEPRU-PNR-PRFU) from 2003–2023. He is currently a reviewer for several international journal like Inorganic Chemistry (ACS), J. Molecular Modelling (Springer), and Guest-Editor of Special Issue “Magneto-Structural Correlation” of Magnetochemistry MDPI.
Pr. Lotfi Belkhiri participates actively in various scientific meetings, conferences, chair and Spring School on In Silico Drug Design, and the promotion of the Algerian Theoretical & Computational Chemistry Network.

I am working in the groups of Prof. Niyazi Bulut in the area of theoretical/computational Physical Chemistry of small gas phase molecules. My research involves state-of-the-art electronic structure calculations of potential energy surfaces (PESs) for various atom/molecule complexes that contain radicals. My developed PESs are then used in quantum scattering calculations of relevance in molecular spectroscopy, cold-atom collisions, and astrophysical chemistry.
