Thanks @AmaliaPoblador for the opportunity of presenting my @hylleraas research on ML for transition metal chemistry in the Organic Chemistry Lecture of the University of Geneva. It was amazing to discuss with the students and the faculty!

Most developed countries have a clear long-term national strategy for quantum technology. Should Norway have one as well? And if yes, how should it look like? Join us for the discussion on Nov 7-8. Sign up on qcnorway.no/ @SINTEFdigital #QuantumComputing
