Posts in presenting my work

This summer I was lucky enough to attend FemEx 2017 in the Netherlands. FemEx is a conference promoing female excellence in computational and theoretical chemistry, so it was right up my scientific alley! Add to that the fact that I've been studying Dutch for almost two years now, and it made this conference a perfect fit for me.

I’m excited to share that I’ll be speaking at the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computer Science this week in Houston, TX. My presentation, titled "Accurate Physics-Based Models for Biomolecular Simulations," will be on Thursday morning at 9am. I’ll be discussing the application of some cool data science techniques to molecular modeling, including how physical and chemical intuition can inform our data analysis, and how data science can actually provide us with new insights into the underlying physics. Hope to see you there!

This post was originally a paper written with Vivian Steyert for a class, Theoretical Mechanics. In summer 2015 I adapted it for this blog. If you're interested in the original paper (pdf), you can read it here.
