Computational Chemist • PhD Researcher • Science Communicator
I’m Nishi Maru, a computational chemist with a passion for data-driven science, machine learning, and digital chemistry. With a strong foundation in organic chemistry and cheminformatics, I aim to bridge the gap between experimental chemistry and computational modeling.
I’m currently a Marie Skłodowska-Curie PhD fellow at the University of Groningen, working on data-driven catalyst design as part of the CATALOOP doctoral network. Prior to this, I worked at Aganitha Cognitive Solutions on early-stage drug discovery and predictive analytics, and briefly pursued graduate studies at the University of Utah in digital chemistry.
Outside of work, I enjoy writing, storytelling, learning new languages, and exploring the intersections of science and creativity.
