Postdoc · Computational Materials Science · AI for Materials
I work at the intersection of materials science and machine learning, combining first-principles calculations, atomistic simulation and ML models to explore and understand materials.
🏛️ I'm currently a postdoc in the group of Gian-Marco Rignanese at UCLouvain, working on the ERC project GEMPROMISE.
- 🤖 Machine-learned interatomic potentials and graph neural networks for materials
- 🧱 Structure generation, analysis and materials databases
- ⚙️ Automated high-throughput simulation workflows
