Rob Parrish leads the quantum chemistry technology mission at QC Ware. Rob has spent the bulk of his early career learning how to use many types of hardware to accelerate quantum chemistry codes, including CPUs, GPUs, and even some forays into forthcoming QPUs. He has key interests in getting either more detailed or more complete information out of quantum chemistry codes, as exemplified by his efforts to robustly decompose interaction energies with "F-SAPT" methodology or to provide complete workflows for experimental observables like spectroscopies and conformer distributions. Rob operates under the strong hypothesis that quantum chemistry is imminently due to provide the same digital transformation to chemistry that computational fluid dynamics did for aeronautical engineering, and works daily to be a small part of that transformation.
