I thank the Kakar Centre for Psychoanalysis and Culture (KCPC) in Goa for awarding me their inaugural Lightning Fellowship to write a paper from my fieldwork. Sharing the video summary of my proposed project as shot for KCPC soon after. Looking forward to the fellowship month! ✍️

Thrilled to start my independent career as an Asst. Prof. @ChemColumbia & an ARS @FlatironInst. We'll develop new methods for modeling excited states, with an eye on practical photocatalysis. Other areas of quantum #compchem are also of interest, stay tuned for more!
