Research Scientist at FAIR (Fundamental AI Research) Chemistry, @AIatMeta @OpenCatalyst

Today, w/ Andrew Ferguson's group at @UChiPritzker: we're able to simulate entire enzyme systems with explicit solvent (O(100k) atoms) at near-quantum accuracy, matching real experimental measurements for enzyme activity. ~1,000x faster than SOTA QM/MM.

Speed made it possible. Working w/ the @PyTorch team, 3ns/day for 1,000 atoms on one H200 GPU node, plus distributed inference that scales to any GPU count. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2609.09293 We’re releasing it in our codebase today: github.com/facebookresearch/…

Open Molecules 2025 just got even better! We’re pleased to announce today that we significantly expanded OMol25 with 40M new datapoints. We also present our collaboration with Lawrence Livermore National Lab and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab on the Open Polymer 2026 dataset.

Open Polymers 2026 (OPoly26) features over 6M DFT calculations on systems up to 360 atoms. These feature a variety of traditional polymers, copolymers, polymer electrolytes, optical polymers, peptoids, other large macromolecules like lipids, and more!

Thanks to the team at LLNL, LBL, and Meta who made that possible: @antoniuk_evan @SamMBlau @mshuaibii

The new OMol data covers more heavy main-group chemistry, main group clusters (e.g. polyhedral boranes), intermediate spin metal complexes, ionized small molecules, exotic protonation states, and multi-molecular organic clusters. We dramatically improve on redox calcs.

These data were used to train the next iteration of our flagship UMA models. Check out our latest UMA-S-1.2, now ~50% faster, while being even more (40+%) accurate than our previous UMA-S-1.1 model.

Great visit today from Dr. Daniel Levine (@Meta FAIR), who shared the latest advances on the #UMA universal models for atoms! Fantastic discussion about how #machinelearning models can reshape molecular simulations across chemistry and materials science. Exciting times ahead for #compchem! @UCSanDiego @UCSDPhySci @UCSDChemBiochem @HDSIUCSD @SDSC_UCSD

After many years and 8 reviewers, our paper w/@mhg_group on the origin of the covalent bond, where we question some prevailing wisdom, is finally out. This topic is like religion: no one can really prove they're right but people have very strong opinions. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
