Congratulations to our PhD student Amanda Arcidiacono for her talk at WATOC 2025 in Oslo, the international conference of World Association of Theoretical and Computational chemists. The title of the presented talk was "Understanding excited states of carotenoids in environments with Machine Learning". The study of carotenoids' excited states in complex environments is crucial for understanding natural processes involved in photosynthesis and photoprotection. Machine Learning can be a powerful tool to obtain fast and accurate approaches to study these processes from a computational perspective.
