PROFILE

Anup Kumar

Developed and integrated Nudged Elastic Band (NEB) functionality into the NewtonNet recipe within the Quantum-Accelerators/quacc repository, enabling automated transition state searches for reaction-path workflows. Leveraged Python and the geodesic-interpolate library to implement accurate geodesic path interpolation, enhancing the precision of NEB calculations. Added new job functions to streamline NEB and geodesic path usage in computational chemistry pipelines, and updated documentation and test workflows to ensure reproducibility and ease of adoption. Demonstrated skills in backend development, scientific computing, and CI/CD practices. The work focused on robust workflow integration, reducing time to transition state insights for end users.
