    Two new projects have been funded to simulate strongly correlated molecules on quantum computers! Both of these are joint projects with our fantastic collaborators: Sophia Economou (VT Physics), Ed Barnes (VT Physics), and Dave Pappas (NIST/CU Boulder). Both graduate student and postdoc (apply here: link) positions available! Thanks, NSF and DOE!!
