Looking for a PhD student in Theoretical Chemistry to investigate the diffusion of radionuclides and decay products (Zr) through rock minerals. First principles + KMC + ML Deadline: Jan 9th Details+Apply: www.verw.tu-dresden.de/StellAus/ste... #PhDlife #PhDjobs #Academia #Chemjobs ⚛️🧪 #CompChemSky

Despite having been a member for about 25 years, today marks my first visit to @rsc.org Formulations 4.0 meeting

Are you looking for an exciting project to develop novel wavefunction theory for open-shell ground and excited states in molecules? We have an postdoctoral opening at @uclchemistry.bsky.social. Deadline 15-Dec-25. Find out more at www.hughburton.com www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DPR288/r...

Attended a conversation / talk by Clive Humby. Fascinating insights into the stories and insights that can arise from data

Do you want to learn about the life of Walter Kohn, Nobel prize-winning chemist and physicist? Join us for our webinar focused around a newly published biography that delves into Kohn’s extraordinary journey – author Sir David Clary will join us live. Register: https://rsc.li/3LwkwbX #ChemSky

Know anyone who would be interested in a PhD using experiments and machine learning to help address anti-microbial resistance? They might like to take a look at this studentship available in Sheffield (I'm helping to supervise the ML part). www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

#compchem #machinelearning #quantumcomputing We have several open positions & we are looking for: - 2 postdocs in machine learning to work on foundation models (theoretical developments) - 2 HPC engineers: quantum computing(1); ab initio computations and QM/MM (2) Reach to me for more details.

TLDR; The PSF has made the decision to put our community and our shared diversity, equity, and inclusion values ahead of seeking $1.5M in new revenue. Please read and share. pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/10/NSF-... 🧵

Do you want to invent the future of Chemistry with us? We‘re looking for a "Digital Native” Organic Chemist to join our team at Microsoft Research AI for Science. We offer an amazing environment where you can do deep research with passionate and talented colleagues to solve problems that matter! 1/2

🚀 Exciting PhD in Manchester! Work with Andrew Leach, Lia Sotorrios & me, plus a placement at MedChemica Ltd. Combine computational chemistry, AI & drug design to explore how generative AI can accelerate new medicine discovery. #CompChem #PhDStudentship 📩 www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

🚀 Last Friday, the University of Leeds hosted our RAG Models & AI Agents in Chemical Discovery and Development Workshop. We were delighted to welcome 36 leading experts from academia, industry, and funding bodies. Read the workshop blog here 👉 buff.ly/rNnNeXe #AI #Chemistry #Innovation

Age yourself with a tech problem you solved. SCSI terminator had fallen off

I'm also going to take this opportunity to advertise again that I'm recruiting postdocs to work in my group. If you have an interest in quantum dynamics, excited states, electron/energy transfers, or other things my group does (see here faygroupucla.github.io) please do get in touch.

Bubbling with ideas after the @aichemyhub.bsky.social meeting on GenAI in chemical education. One of the more ambitious ones may be “can you use AI to identify when marking / feedback isn’t consistent with the assessment criteria?”

On my way to London (Imperial) for a meeting on GenAI in Chemical Education Looking forward to getting some ideas on how to incorporate into UG programmes

We're finishing up a new release, but trying to track down some bugs 🪲 #compchem Some Windows users report Avogadro 1.99 won't even launch. If this is you and you're willing to test a new build, please let us know at discuss.avogadro.cc

Sounds familiar. One of my colleagues has a homemade poster on his wall saying “remember to say no you ****”

📣 Postdoc position in computational materials chemistry available I am looking for a postdoc to join my group and work on computational design of disordered crystalline materials Read more and apply here: www.vacancies.aau.dk/scientific-p... Repost are highly appreciated! #compchem

We have updated the van der Waals radii for most atoms, resulting in changes to some calculations across the CSD software portfolio. More in the blog at ccdc-info.com/3VtALbN. #Crystallography #CompChemSky

"Publishers selling papers to train AIs" was perhaps not the direction I was hoping to see the already questionable scientific publishing scheme take 🧪 🌍 #AcademicSky #WomenInSTEM www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Interested in self-driving labs for sustainable polymer additives? If so, there's a PhD project with @nwarren.bsky.social and me that you might like. www.findaphd.com/phds/project... It is competition based and includes UK tuition fees and an enhanced stipend thanks to our industry partner. #chemsky

OK #chemsky do your thing. I have an immediate PhD vacancy working on a MOF / crystallography / electron diffraction project with Syngenta. Home fees and stipend are covered. Spread the word!

Something else to dust on my desk at work

What better first post than to advertise this position. Come join our group! Our group is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for a project on reactive machine learning potentials. Reposts and spreading the word to interested people in your network appreciated! jobs.ethz.ch/job/view/JOP...

Age yourself with your first computer: I’d be amazed if more than a handful of people knew what this was. Pic is not my actual computer

The OMSF (@omsf.bsky.social) OpenADMET project is hiring a Science Lead for ML models of molecular property prediction, as well as a Senior Scientist for data curation and pipeline integration! Help build the future of open source ADMET prediction and ML model enablement! openadmet.org/jobs/

So, Brighton, Aston and Hull are going/gone, and the next one is Reading. Universities have no money, chemistry departments are expensive, and increasingly there is pressure on to close them. Vandalising the UK science base in this way will do no good in the long run. www.change.org/p/stop-unive...

New platform, new profile pic. I’ve “decloaked” and am no longer a benzene dimer
