Overlap between computer science and chemistry?

I am late, and everyone else here comes up with how computer science can contribute to chemistry. I am going to do something related, but I also point out how chemistry can contribute to some (very carefully selected) CS opportunities.

I was in the same position. I recently announced a dual course of chemistry and applied mathematics - Comp.Sci. I like these two subjects. I originally planned to double with pure comp. Sai. However our department of CS is full of terrible lecturers, and the math course is full of wonderful lecturers.

Computational chemistry is one of many areas where CS and chemistry have recently overlapped. This is not obvious, but there are many others. Because people who are good at using computer and science do less things than they think. Many laboratories rely on some basic modeling, even laboratories that are not computational. I am currently working on combinations with nanoparticles and PI has recently complained that most of his graduate students can not program something to save their lives.

If we can not do that, we can always use some excellent software developers in our field. Although I may be a bit spoiled, some of the so-called "cutting-edge" software suites have to be recompiled partly each time they start up, and in order to crash the communication module voluntarily, some computers It is necessary to restart. It is obvious to me that many things are designed by software developers, not practical scientists - for example, there are millions of button presses required to load data and use it, And the lack of general flexibility of software. Data type

Even if you do not want to solve this problem, we are considering ways to share code and model / data issues. Everything is suitable for computers, and research is no exception. Researchers are still trying to elucidate how to easily share, save and publish files (multiple studies are pushed as letters without code).

After all, I do not know what you want. Based on the last few paragraphs, this may not be what you want, but you asked about the overlap between the two domains. Here are some examples of interaction possibilities.

PS: Although there is an interesting example, Philip Guo's doctoral dissertation focuses on the problem that the same result can be obtained even if the environment is different, even if the same code is executed on different systems. Because of this problem, I now create a tool (I think Python) that can run simulation within the security sandbox (and therefore even) without compromising performance. http://www.pgbovine.net/PhD-memoir.htm

Using data as raw material, using code as technology and computer as a tool seems to force overlapping fields. Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics are artists' creative tools. At the same time, the spread of software literacy and the natural coupling between art and computer generation have constrained any opposing arguments.

Science and humanities are generally considered mutually exclusive. Even if two overlap, it usually affects mathematically inspired pictorial humanities or physics and chemistry applications in sculpture; we talk hardly about the opposite direction. In this article I share my experience in a combination of prose writing and programming; in particular, the way to practice the former is useful for developing the latter. When I was 18 years, it was time to submit my college application, my mother and I. I insist that I want to be an architect (I want to become entity, not software) and she is convinced that I want more computer science. When I did not enter anyone, I reached a compromise and I landed at my safety school and majored in English. Some problems are just a way to solve myself.
