Computational Chemistry at the San Diego Supercomputer Center. High-performance computing, quantum, artificial intelligence. Born in Germany, lived in Italy, Netherlands, settled in US.

New paper in JCIM:
GPU-accelerated ab initio ESP calculations in QUICK + a reweighted RESP (rwRESP) scheme for robust, grid density–independent charge fitting.

Dense molecular grids eliminate orientation dependence in ESP charge derivation. rwRESP removes grid sensitivity and is now integrated into AmberTools.

Open-source and reproducible.

Happy New Year everybody! Best wishes for a wonderful 2023!
Pretty interesting these plants. Neat to see the calcium flux in action: Bursts of calcium ions prompt sensitive plants to fold up in defense. See https://t.co/0lEs2IcEj6
My LA times oped on the new Covid wave, much of which can be prevented https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2022-12-06/covid-wave-winter-infections-immunity-bivalent-vaccine
"Anyone who doesn’t take seriously the risk of COVID infection is in denial about the risk of #LongCovid and its potentially disabling effects."
Op-Ed: COVID wave is rising in U.S. because immunity is down and precautions have grown lax

The COVID-19 virus's mutations are outpacing treatments and vaccines. That's especially scary because of the decline of basic precautions such as face coverings and ventilation.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you who have a holiday today and celebrate. Wishing a nice day to everyone else as well!
Following a self-driving car in San Francisco. Jaguar and Waymo. First time that I saw one. I know they have been on the streets for a while but it’s still impressive the first time to see in action.
