It was absolutely my pleasure to visit Newcastle and speak at the Annual Faraday Institution meeting; wonderful people and excellent discussion !
We enjoyed the 1st keynote of #Faraday2024 by Professor @KPatBerkeley, @UCBerkeley. Kristin discussed the advantages of data-driven reaction network approaches for exploring chemical reactions with greater accuracy and efficiency. ⚡🔋

Deeply honored for this recognition and looking forward to future exciting research ! Sincere thank you @doescience for years of support and for believing in my work! Also deep gratitude goes to @persson_group, @BerkeleyLab and @Cal_Engineer.
Thanks a million to our Distinguished Scientist Fellows! Four of the nation’s top scientists were awarded $1 million in funding from @ENERGY over the next three years to work on game-changing research with universities and the nation’s national labs: https://t.co/FsZp9vrINP

UC Berkeley just hosted a hackathon. Over 1000 students from around the world came to build for 36 hours straight. The reward? $100k+ in prizes. Here are the winners and crowd standouts we saw at CalHacks ‘24 @CalHacks (🧵)

The workshop "Open Databases Integration for Materials Design" returns to CECAM-HQ (& online) this week! The @optimade_ consortium was first established to create a comprehensive #API capable of accessing all #materials #databases, to address the issue of scattered databases.

Good reminder: we just don't need hydrogen trains. Electric rail has been a thing for about a century. It works wonderfully. India has electrified ~half its massive rail network in five years. I think we can manage here if we wanted to. (I'm looking at you, California).
*Around 40,000km have been electrified since 2014, versus 21,801 in all the years prior to 2014. With 94% of lines electrified as of 1 January 2024, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has pledged that Indian Railways will achieve 100% electrification within “a few months”."

Developing new materials for applications like superconductors is notoriously time-consuming. But with AI trained on data from @BerkeleyLab's Materials Project, @GoogleDeepMind predicted the structures of 2 million new materials, as covered in @TIME:
