[David Bernal @bernalde]

I’m starting a new position as an Assistant Professor at @PurdueChemE !
I will continue to be part-time involved with @USRAedu and @NASA #QuAIL.
Stay tuned for news regarding my new and growing research team!

Very nice graphic from @bernalde lab at #ESCAPE34-PSE24 bridging between different methods and showing a map of Indiana (the lab is at Purdue) and maps of the conference region

We've had a great kickoff to the @QuantumSciCtr summer school, with a beautiful, inspiring taste of Chopin's music from @orit_wolf last night, and excellent lectures today! Please join us online at https://t.co/UBuJTrXhWM. Check out the full program here: https://t.co/l7ulqEovJN

A true measure of the authenticity of an optimization conference is an optimal human pyramid with @JeffLinderoth! @JanKronqvist @bernalde #ios2024 #ios24

It took time to get this published, but I am glad to have turned my PhD thesis @CMU_ChemE into several papers!

Reflecting on my academic journey from PhD graduate to now a professor, I'm delighted to share the last chapter of my thesis waiting to be published in an academic journal.
This work, together with Ignacio Grossmann, delves into solving convex Generalized Disjunctive Programming

[David Bernal @bernalde]

by understanding that they can be modeled using conic inequalities 🎉 , enhancing the efficiency of their solution using solvers by conversion into Mixed-Integer Conic Programs.
This approach was applied to various examples in #ProcessSystemsEngineering and #MachineLearning.

[David Bernal @bernalde]

A good moment to highlight @arxiv inability to deal with people with 2 last names! Another paper for DEB Neira! Watch out @Google
https://t.co/qdSKe7UgoP

[David Bernal @bernalde]

You would think that @Google would know how there are last names more complicated than a single word but I guess @GoogleAI's most sophisticated tool for @googlescholar_ citations is using the last word in your name (Neira, DEB)...
Do I need to hyphenate my name or make mom mad?

[David Bernal @bernalde]

The stochastic benchmark (aka #WindowStickers) paper is out! Joint work with Robin Brown and Marco Pavone @Stanford, Pratik Sathe @UCLA (now @LosAlamosNatLab), Eleanor Rieffel @NASAAmes and @dr_filutek and @dventu from @USRAedu, check out the details in Davide's thread! #QuAIL

[Davide Venturelli @dventu]

We posted on the arXiv an introduction to our stochastic optimization benchmarking package for quantum and quantum-inspired solvers: https://t.co/TkaHRGRuBa - we take an holistic look at what a solver is end-to-end and how it should be evaluated for actual impact. 🧵1/7

Excited to see the Front Cover Art for our manuscript: "Quantum Machine Learning Predicting ADME-Tox Properties" is now published in Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling

[David Bernal @bernalde]

Update: Andres' talk got moved to Windermere Ballroom X!
See you there in 20 minutes!

[David Bernal @bernalde]

We are at #AIChE2023 and have 2 talks, a poster and a panel!
Zedong Peng presents #MindtPy in the #PSE software session, Andres Cabeza talks on Tributyl Citrate process design (best work #LatinXinChemE), Pedro Xavier has a QUBO.jl poster and a panel for @LatinXinChE ☕

@tolga_birdal @dwavequantum Cool stuff! Great write-up. Just be careful in not confusing AQC and Quantum Annealing

[David Bernal @bernalde]

@INFORMS2023 Showing up earlier for the Saturday workshops and the eclipse! Big win :)

[David Bernal @bernalde]

Today I'll be talking about the perspectives of #QuantumComputing for #ChemicalEngineering at the #ComputerAidsChemicalEngineering virtual seminar at 2:30BST/9:30 EST.
Join us to talk about #QC in ChemE
