Molecular Physics Early Career Researcher Prize 2024 — the official profile article is now out! 🎉

The awarded paper focused on advanced quantum-chemical calculations for predicting bond lengths and vibrational frequencies — well outside my primary field of medicinal chemistry. I’m grateful this work has been recognised internationally. 💪
