PhD researcher @robincurth.bsky.social joined the @cecamevents.bsky.social workshop on simulating electrochemical storage devices @sorbonne-universite.fr in Paris!
Showcasing strategies for next-gen batteries such as ML-based force fields to model interfacial processes & predict ionic conductivity.

Inside a conference room, people sit in wooden chairs. We can only see their backs. Everyone is paying attention to the speaker, standing at the front to the left. There is also a presentation projected at the front. The presentation slide shows information about "Generation of clean fuel from water."

Five people standing in front of the Panthéon in Paris. It is a big cobblestone place, different tourists in the background. The group of five looks directly into the camera. Behind them is the Panthéon building, consisting of sic pillars and a triangular roof with stone carved decorations. On the left and right side of the picture are also some typical city flat buildings and above them grey cloudy sky.

With Giovanni Pizzi and the @nccr-marvel.bsky.social and @cecamevents.bsky.social crews, we also wrote a little paper, just landed on the #arXiv, to explain the philosophy and the basic usage arxiv.org/html/2507.05.... Your students deserve better than scroll through 50 lines of matplotlib madness!
