JuniorExcited to share the upcoming CECAM workshop: “Accessibility, Inclusivity & Visibility in Computational Chemistry”! 📅 Apr 22–24, 2026 📍 Lyon (hybrid) 💸 Free registratration: deadline Mar 31 Join us to discuss how to make #Compchem more inclusive & accessible. Contributed talks welcome!

Lately, it's been coding for @avogadro.cc because it feels like some small change I can do myself For *years* I've wanted to show electron density volumes .. little clouds ☁️☁️ #compchem

- Reposted by Henrique C. S. JuniorI'd like to chat with people who have applied for grad school in chem or biochem for fall 2026 for an article in C&EN (@cenmag.bsky.social) about how funding changes in the US are impacting admissions. If this is you, please fill out this form. forms.office.com/r/5xUxaqEnfX #chemsky #chemchat
- The paper: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1... #CompChem
- I have put together a webapp called Q-Shape. It is a browser-based tool for quantitative coordination geometry analysis. Q-Shape has results parity with the classic SHAPE software, but aims to be much easier to use. Tests and feedback are welcome. #CompChem #ChemSky #CompChemSky

- Dear colleagues in the #CompChem community, Next year, I plan to venture into learning a software package for working with periodic boundary conditions. Which free software would you recommend? CP2K, SIESTA, Quantum ESPRESSO, or something else?

- Reposted by Henrique C. S. JuniorI am often asked: What is the best telescope to buy for someone just getting into astronomy? 🪐🔭👀 As a theorist, I am absolutely useless and can tell you nothing. HOWEVER, my friend the wonderful @philplait.bsky.social is NOT useless and has great advice & relevant links here! ⤵️
- Rio de Janeiro right now: the sky is a bright blue, not a single cloud in sight. The sun is strong, so yellow it hurts the eye. I hate it.

- Reposted by Henrique C. S. JuniorI have recently added #ChemChat as a feed thanks to @stephy.bsky.social (and to @chemjobber.bsky.social for the concept) If that's your sort of thing, here it is: bsky.app/profile/did:... I warn you though, mere moments in and I'm considering bread concepts (again). Enter at your own risk.

- Reposted by Henrique C. S. JuniorSkala is now available to everyone! Why are we releasing it? Because we’re not just aiming to publish a cool paper — we’re on a mission to bring DFT to chemical accuracy using deep learning. And to make real progress, we need the community’s feedback. #compchem
- The wait is over! Microsoft Research is sharing Skala, the new exchange-correlation functional, marking a major milestone in the accuracy/cost trade-off in DFT. Help us learn from your testing so we can improve. Available on Azure AI Foundry and GitHub. msft.it/6016sFDLY
- Goodbye Jane #Goodall. You were trully amazing.

- @mailbird.bsky.social I’ve decided to cancel my Mailbird subscription. I paid for the “lifetime” plan, yet I was still going to be billed annually for updates - very Adobe-esque.
