Welcome to the Sherrill Group!

Congrats to Caroline Glick for a well earned Ph.D. and moving onto a postdoc position at Furman! During her time in our group, she increased our understanding of using approximate methods for two-body crystal lattice energies and led the development of software (SparcleQC) to facilitate running tough QM calculations on protein-ligand systems. Best of luck at Furman!

Congratulations to Dr. Sherrill on his appointment as the interim executive director of the Georgia Tech Institute for Data Engineering and Science (IDEas)! Through this role, he will support the interdisciplinary research across campus involving data science and high performance computing.

In October, current and former group members and collaborators came together to honor Dr. Sherrill's Herty Medal at the Southeastern Regional Meeting of the ACS (SERMACS). Current group members Lori, Austin, and Caroline presented excellent talks, and Izzy and Luke presented exciting posters. Many group alumni returned to update everyone on their research progress. Thanks to group alumna Ashley Ringer-McDonald for organizing the symposium and bringing cookies in the shape of Dr. Sherrill's face.
