Most of the important reactions are occurred in the molecular assembly such as solution or proteins. I have developed computational approaches to investigate reaction mechanisms in small clusters, solution, biomolecules, and electronic devices. Recently novel response kernel approximations based on induced atomic dipole moments are proposed instead of conventional expensive QM/MM calculations. These approaches can provide reliable energies of the system and their gradients to perform the free energy gradient calculation in conjunction with the nudged elastic band method.
