diy: from bits to atoms. low-cost open source hardware scene rules
with following applications in mind:
molecular engineering: better living through chemistry
cognitive augmentation: technological force
multipliers for human agency, sense-making, and creativity
media technology: uncanny valley hacking across
modalities. new media stuff
health: biomechanics, digital twins, active/passive prosthetics
art: "The same equations have the same solutions"
past work
decade of academic research in computational chemistry/biophysics
and their -informatics variants, University of Helsinki
frameworks and tools: juggling of different model chemistries,
automation of simulation/calculation workflows, chemoinformatics,
graph theory, inverse design and chemical space exploration,
scikit-learnish ML, sequence/structural/network bioinformatics, hpc,
etc
application areas: chemical bonding, molecular
properties and interactions, conjugated systems, superatoms, homogeneous
catalysis for small-molecule activation and enantioselective trafos,
humongous protein complexes, metalloenzymes, etc etc
wrote my phd
thesis on the fun topic of aromaticity. defended it in -22, postdoc’d until the end of -23
also some start-up’ish stuff
with friends: knowledge/dependency graph based
intelligent tutor systems for HS education, 2016/2020
for others: worked as a data scientist at an early-stage analytical chemistry start-up in 2020-21. wore many hats
