"Machine learning in chemistry and beyond" (ChE-651) seminar by Gabe Gomes "Machine-Guided Catalyst Optimization"
27-09-202227-09-2022With: Gabe is an assistant professor at the departments of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, in Pittsburgh, USA. Gabe was born and raised in the countryside of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where he received his B.Sc. He earned his Ph.D. in Fall 2018 from Florida State University, where he was awarded the LASER Fellowship in 2014 and the 2016-2017 IBM Ph.D Scholarship. At FSU, Gabe’s research was centered on the relationship between molecular structure and reactivity, focusing on the development and applications of stereoelectronic effects. For his work at FSU, in 2018, Gabe received several awards for his work in computational chemistry, including his selection for the CAS SciFinder Future Leaders Program. In 2019, Gabe joined the University of Toronto as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Matter Lab, led by Professor Alán Aspuru-Guzik. In 2020, Gabe was awarded the prestigious NSERC Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship with the project “Designing Catalysts with Artificial Intelligence,” and has been featured on the “Next Great Impossible” series by Merck/Milipore-Sigma. Gabe joined the Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling as an Early Career Board member in 2021.
