Hi #Chemsky and #AcademicBlueSky, I'm Maarten!
Time to introduce myself here. I am a final year PhD student in #ChemEng in Kevin Van Geem's group at UGent (Belgium). My research focuses on accelerating the use of continuous processes by using AI & ML and quantum chemistry. Happy to connect here!

In der Forschung wird bald nichts mehr ohne KI gehen, erklärt der Chemiker Maarten Dobbelaere im Interview. Aber welche KI? »Die bahnbrechende KI-Anwendung der Zukunft wird möglicherweise nicht das sein, was man heute unter KI versteht«, sagt er. #repost
Künstliche Intelligenz: »KI hat meine Erwartungen sogar übertroffen«
In der Forschung werden KI und Maschinenlern-Techniken immer wichtiger, erklärt der Chemiker Maarten Dobbelaere.

Looking forward to this great event!
Good chemistry! Dream Reactions - Towards a Sustainable Future
Next week: 8 speakers, 45 posters, 300 participants - very much looking forward to welcome all of you in Muenster! ⚗️🍃😀
Below, please, find the updated/final poster.
An extreme example of why the h-index without self-citations is interesting

🧑🏽‍🔬 Our reaction analysis tool Rxn-INSIGHT has been downloaded thousands of times since the documentation release (rxn-insight.readthedocs.io)! We're continually working to improve it and would now love to hear your feedback. #ChemSky (1/2)

How long till "Killed by Google"?
The difficulty in actually finding these numbers tells me enough about what the creators at Google think about it. 😅
Google Scholar has "released" their h5-index for journals again, and this tells me nothing more than the number of review papers published by a journal. Perhaps, if we normalise the h5-index by the number of papers published in that journal, we might obtain a somewhat valuable indicator... #ChemSky
A good day to take out the bike and enjoy gravel roads
Lyon, a wonderful city by day and night. Perfect setting for a fruitful TransPharm general assembly meeting, bringing together AI, #GreenChemistry, and ecotox research
In an extremely hot but beautiful Lyon for our annual meeting of the Horizon Europe project TransPharm (Transforming into a sustainable European pharmaceutical sector) where AI, synthesis, and ecotox meet to discover greener pharmaceuticals

That brings my visit to the University of York to an end. It was lovely to see all the great green chemistry research being done here and to meet many new people! For now, looking forward to new adventures #chemsky #GreenChemistry #chemengsky
Happy to give a seminar in York on Friday on digitalising chemical reaction engineering, all welcome! #chemsky #chemengsky #GreenChemistry
Today in the photogenic city of Leeds
Cheminformatics family businesses be like
Visiting the University of York till the end of June. If anyone in the UK likes to chat about AI/ML in chemistry/ChemE, green chemistry, flow chemistry, or show me around their lab; I would love to connect and meet up!

What a week! I’m incredibly honoured to have been awarded a junior postdoctoral fellowship from @fwovlaanderen.bsky.social, with only 16.1% of applications funded this year.

This fellowship, hosted by UGent and VIB, allows me to work on self-driving labs and collaborate with leaders in the field!
Thank you, it really is memorable!

🎓 Proud to share that I successfully defended my PhD in Chemical Engineering at Ghent University yesterday with my dissertation titled "Molecular Machine Learning for Chemical Reaction Engineering"!

🚀 Excited for what’s ahead and to further contribute to #AIforChemistry!

#Chemsky #PhDone
On my way to La Rochelle for the International Symposium on Green Chemistry (#ISGC). Looking forward to this event and happy to meet new people! Find me in Room 4 on Monday (talks at 14:00 and 15:30/45)!

Deepwiki is awesome! It creates a wiki for every GitHub repository by replacing github.com by deepwiki.com. Just tried it out with Rxn-INSIGHT and now there is even more documentation and insight in reactions
