Computational materials chemist. Special affection for combinatorial problems. New line in profile to distinguish me, the real human, from the spammy imposter.
I wouldn't feel particularly bad. The messages that the imposter did send to a few colleagues were really generic low-grade spammy nonsense. 😒

Here's a cool thing that needs a human to do: These two papers doi.org/10.1039/D5CP... and doi.org/10.1039/D5CP... were published at the end of last year in @pccp.rsc.org. They are the result of the assessment of my masters Comp Chem class.
Associative vs. dissociative binding of CO2 on M4 transition metal clusters
Density functional theory calculations were performed to determine reaction paths for the reaction of CO2 with M4 transition metal clusters (M = Nb, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Pt). Geometries incorporating a...

Whelp. It appears I have an impostor. To be clear, this is actually me, a real human compuational materials chemist <pinches self>. The imposter sems to have copied my profile, but is made of spam.
