We will be conducting a search at the assistant professor level this year for a faculty position at NYU in AI-enabled chemistry. If you know of anyone interested in applying (including yourself), the link to the application is here: apply.interfolio.com/195400

Our latest paper on quantum effects in proton transporting electrolytes (known as concentrated hydrogen-bonded electrolytes) shows how well equivariant transformer potentials can rationalize experiments: advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…

Mayor Mamdani announcing NYC's investment of nearly $30M in NYU's new quantum Q-Fab facility at 770 Broadway.

In our recent arXiv paper (arxiv.org/abs/2607.05266), we illustrate the difficulties of using generative AI models for molecular crystal structure and polymorph prediction. Data remains a major challenge. We propose a solution, yet generative AI remains far from predictive.

I found this kind of cool. Any positive integer n can be expressed using only the number "2" three times using the following formula, where the number of square roots is equal to the desired integer n:

It was an honor to receive the Doctor Honoris Causa from the University of Toulouse last week.

From the 60th birthday symposium in honor of Ali Alavi, held at the beautiful venue of Schloss Ringberg in Bavaria.

We were pleased to contribute to the J. Chem. Phys. Festschrift dedicated to my former classmate at Columbia, MIT Prof. Jianshu Cao, an amazing and accomplished scientist. pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/articl…

Our paper on our molecular crystal toolkit and what it can do is now online! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Recent group photo in Washington Square Park. Lucky to have such a talented group of students and postdocs.

Really enjoyed participating in the NATO conference on anion exchange membranes at the Technion last November. Exciting conference in the beautiful city of Haifa.
