Due to popular demand, I am sharing my slide deck on #environmental costs of #ML in #compchem & #materials_science www.grynova-ccc.org/other.html - incl. work by @skepteis.bsky.social @pschwllr.bsky.social and others.
Please send any other relevant resources my way, I’ll be maintaining this deck.

I have an open PhD position. The exact topic is negotiable and can range from implementing new quantum-chemical methods in @orca-qc-official.bsky.social to computational studies of open-shell molecules.

Anyone fancy a (minimal teaching load) tenure track position on quantum computing on a sunny island 🌤️ 🏝️? The Cyprus Institute are also hiring a tenure track assistant proff on quantum algorithms.

I've complained a couple times about the lack of physics community here but not done much about it! New commitment: I'll post one interesting arXiv paper a day until things are better.

(To the folks who follow me for non-physics science policy, don't worry; plenty more of that reporting to come.)

Excited to see our work featured by Digital Discovery!
Tired of quantum noise ruining your chemistry sims?
Our new MREM method brings multireference insight to error mitigation—boosting accuracy for strongly correlated molecules on NISQ hardware.
Proud of this collaboration with @rahmlab.bsky.social

US Supreme Court allows NIH to cut $2 billion in research grants The decision will hinder lawsuits against grant terminations, legal specialists say.

Yesterday the Supreme Court issued a convoluted, 36-page emergency order about NIH grant terminations. Two main takeaways:
-$2 billion (not the government # of $780 million) in NIH grants will likely be re-terminated
-future legal challenges will be much harder

I benefited massively from www.ipam.ucla.edu/programs/lon.... I got into ML for science through that program. Now IPAM may be gone mathstodon.xyz/@tao/1149568...

New: In addition to UCLA's NSF grants, looks like ~494 NIH grants and 2 DOE grants were also suspended. Will have more details later once they are processed.

For the math folks on here: NSF has suspended Terry Tao's grant. www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/...

Breaking: NSF is suspending roughly 300 grants with UCLA, following a DOJ finding on Tuesday that the university violated Title VI by "creating a hostile educational environment for Jewish and Israeli students."

Quantum Computing in Spin-Adapted Representations for Efficient Simulations of Spin Systems A new qubit representation of spin systems that natively respects global spin symmetry yields efficient Hamiltonians and quantum circuits for quantum simulation.

NSF budget proposal slashes funding across the agency The proposed 57% cut will drive down the agency’s funding rate and eliminate training programs

The Trump admin wants to cut the NSF's budget by 57%.

In terms of directorates, EDU and ENG would see the biggest cuts at 75%, while MPS is looking at a ~67% cut. The proposal also defunds nearly all postdoc programs and slashes the NSF GRFP budget by 55%.

More here: cen.acs.org/policy/resea...

Trump moves to slash NSF: why are the proposed budget cuts so big? Major US science funder could lose more than half its budget — and researchers are reeling.

Why is the cut to NSF is so steep? The $5 billion, 57% cut goes well beyond other science agencies (40% for NIH, 14% for DOE science). It's more than the numbers from the Cruz report, which (erroneously) estimated only 2 billion over 4 years went to "DEI" science.
