Happy to share Phuc's new preprint in collaboration with Jorg Behler on the integration of our MLXDM dispersion term into 4th generation charge equilibration NNPs chemrxiv.org/engage/chemr...
Long-Range Interactions in High-Dimensional Neural Network Potentials: A Benchmark Study for Small Organic Molecules
Many machine learning potentials (MLPs) rely on representations of the total energy in terms of the positions of the atoms in their local environment, using either a cutoff radius or a limited number ...

Before we look to take advantage of fleeing American talent, let’s nurture the Canadian talent we have here by increasing R&D spending

I was astonished to learn rapamycin was discovered in soil samples from a 1964 Canadian medical expedition to Easter Island and initially developed in Montreal. Suren Sehgal, the Canadian scientist who lead the research didn't have a wikipedia entry, so I wrote one: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surendr...

Happy to see Phuc and Siri's perspective on MLXDM dispersion corrections to NNPs is published in @JPhysChem pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
Modeling Intermolecular Interactions with Exchange-Hole Dipole Moment Dispersion Corrections to Neural Network Potentials
Neural network potentials (NNPs) are an innovative approach for calculating the potential energy and forces of a chemical system. In principle, these methods are capable of modeling large systems with...
