🚀 New preprint out! “Autonomous interpretation of atomistic scattering data” → arxiv.org/abs/2510.05938

Scattering data is still mostly analysed by hand. But what if robots could do it themselves? 🤖✨⚛️
Autonomous interpretation of atomistic scattering data
Materials with bespoke properties have long been identified by computational searches, and their experimental realisation is now coming within reach through autonomous laboratories. Scattering experim...

BaZrS3 is an emerging solar-cell material ☀️ In a preprint led by @biancapasca.bsky.social, we describe an ML potential that can tackle the structural complexity of amorphous and polycrystalline BaZrS3. Very happy to see this online! Read more at arxiv.org/abs/2506.01517
Machine-learning-driven modelling of amorphous and polycrystalline BaZrS$_{3}$
The chalcogenide perovskite material BaZrS$_{3}$ is of growing interest for emerging thin-film photovoltaics. Here we show how machine-learning-driven modelling can be used to describe the material's ...

Still taking it all in 🥹 being in Paris for the Inflection Award was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Humbled to be named one of the 30 best young scientists working on climate solutions and to stand alongside such an incredible cohort of researchers pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

Can we “design” amorphous materials with useful properties? We argue that #compchem & AI are bringing us closer towards this ambitious goal: rdcu.be/d3JD6
The amorphous state as a frontier in computational materials design
Nature Reviews Materials - Amorphous materials are increasingly central components of key technologies, but their structures remain challenging to study. This Perspective highlights how recent...
