In this seminar\, I will talk about my own tr ajectory: beginning as a PhD student working on computational catalysis at Brown University and ultimately becoming a computational material scienti st at Pfizer. Through stories\, examples\, and lessons learned\, I will de scribe the scientific journey\, unexpected pivots\, and key decisions that shaped my transition from academia to industry.The talk will also explore how computational thinking — modeling\, simulation\, and data-driven an alysis — empowers scientist to tackle complex\, high-impact problems.Bio : Shubham Sharma is a Principal Scientist within the Material Sciences gr oup at Pfizer\, where he works on developing and employing computational s olutions for drug development. Shubham earned his PhD in Chemical Engineer ing from Brown University\, where he worked with Prof. Andrew A. Peterson on computational catalysis and electrochemistry from first-principles simu lations. He then completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Lawrence Liver more National Laboratory\, expanding he expanded his expertise in the fiel d of electrochemical dissolution\, and explored machine learning technique s in spectroscopy. Across academia\, national labs\, and industry\, Shubha m’s work has centered on leveraging computational tools to bridge fundam ental molecular insights with practical applications. Shubham joined Pfize r in 2022 and currently serves a subject matter expert for various modelin g initiatives within the Material Sciences group. LOCATION:LGRT 201 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
