Pratiksha Gaikwad
- Bachelor of Science and Master of Science (2015-2020) from the Department of Chemistry, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kharagpur.
- Pratiksha is working on new wavefunction methods for describing strongly correlated systems, and methods to include dynamic correlation in multireference calculations.
Rugwed Lokhande
- Bachelors and master of science (2015-2020) from Indian Institute of science education and research (IISER), Pune.
- Rugwed is working on new wavefunction methods to describe strong correlation, including flexible perturbative approaches.
Kenneth López Pérez
- My name is Kenneth, I am from Costa Rica. I did my Bachelors and Licentiate degree in Chemistry at the University of Costa Rica. I used to be a GenChem lecturer at the same institution, I really enjoy teaching. At the University of Florida, I am doing research on cheminformatics and computational drug design. Currently, I am using the group’s extended similarity framework to explore the chemical space and to enhance Machine Learning models to predict relevant drug properties. On my free time I like to dance latin dances and hip-hop, working out and watching reality tv shows. Pura Vida!
Lexin Chen
- I am a graduate student in the pchem division. I completed my Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry at Stony Brook University. My main research interest is developing algorithms for clustering, data analysis of Molecular Dynamics simulations, and Charge Transfer studies. I create aesthetic science renderings and watch late-night shows in my free time.
Krisztina Zsigmond
Graduate student in the pchem division working on Perturbation Theory, new wavefunctions for strong correlation, and similarity-based approaches in ML and drug design. An expert Python and C++ coder with a deep love for math. Krisztina loves swimming, biking, and running (in this specific order.)
Carlos Eduardo Vieira de Moura
Postdoc working on FANCI/Fanpy/PyCI/FANPT and many other FAN-tastic projects. Carlos is an expert in electronic structure method development, for both ground and excited states. A devoted animal lover that bleeds blue, green, and yellow for the canarinha.
Kate Huddleston
Postdoc working on iSIM, clustering, drug design, and all things ML-related. Kate is our GPU czar, and one of our resident DFT and atomic charges expert. Proud guardian of dogs, cats, and rabbits.
ALUMNI
Tim Dunn
- Bachelor of Science from Northern Kentucky University and Master of Science from the University of Notre Dame.
- Tim enjoys bowling and working on new extended similarity indices and their applications on chemical and biochemical problems.
Taewon David Kim
- PhD, McMaster University.
- David is working on FANCI and Fanpy, in particular, on new Machine Learning-inspired corrections to improve the accuracy of multireference wavefunctions, and novel wavefunction-in-wavefunction embedding techniques.
