went to a fantastic CECAM workshop on Physics Aware Machine Learning this week in NYC! many thanks to the organizers, including @andrewrosen.bsky.social . Cornell's tech campus on Roosevelt Island was amazing and I got to see Death of a Salesman on Broadway (fantastic). Great science and great art!
beautiful day for the FACT conference at UW! all actinides, all the time
Incredibly sad to hear of the passing of Dave Dixon on Friday. Dave was very supportive of me throughout my career, and I deeply appreciated his intellect, knowledge, and passion for fundamental science across the periodic table. A huge loss for the computational chemistry community #compchem
If you see this, post a random fact about yourself:
As a child, I danced on stage with Chuck Berry.
Check out the latest issue of the annual Department of Chemistry Catalyst magazine! special article on critical materials - highlighting all of the fantastic work of my colleagues.

Had my first commencement at UofU yesterday. So proud to celebrate our Chemiatry grads. One of the best parts of being Chair! It was a beautiful and happy day. @utahchemistry.bsky.social
Fun new paper out today! A new tool to explore how electronic density changes during chemical reactions. #compchem

last paper of the yr! 2025 saw the first papers from my group after moving to @utahchemistry.bsky.social. Glad we are finally back on track research wise and excited to keep on sharing all our new ideas! This paper shows an expedient new way to predict pKa's! #compchem

“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”

During WWII Kay McNulty was one of the women who devised processing routines for the ENIAC machine, establishing how artificial intelligence developed. At the public launch in 1946 the women programmers were relegated to the role of hostesses. www.dib.ie/biography/mc...
Uruguay built a power grid that runs 99% on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. Here’s how its bold energy overhaul became a global model.
