Hello everyone,
I am Sarima Chiorlu, a University of Lagos student and interested in contributing to DeepChem. Last December, I had an internship at a drug discovery startup where they used a lot of your models, incorporating them into their hub. I was intrigued by your work in making drug discovery easier and would love to contribute to your project. I am interested in Layer tutorials and protein language modeling. I was hoping to make meaningful contributions.
Hi Bharath,
My name is Shreyas Nandanwar, and I’m a final year BTech Computer Science Engineering student at MIT Pune University, India. I’m writing to express my keen interest in contributing to the Protein Language Modeling project as part of Google Summer of Code (GSoC).
While I don’t have prior experience working with HuggingFace or fine-tuning LLMs, I’m highly motivated to learn and possess a strong foundation in machine learning concepts. The prospect of delving into this exciting field and contributing to a project with such significant implications for protein research truly excites me.
My academic background in computer science has equipped me with a strong foundation in programming languages like Python and machine learning algorithms. To prepare myself for this project, I’ve begun exploring resources on Hugging Face Transformers and LLM fine-tuning techniques. I’m eager to learn more from the project mentors and the broader community.
I would be grateful for the opportunity to discuss my potential contributions further and learn more about the project’s specific needs. Please let me know the preferred communication channels for interacting with the project mentors and community.
Thank you!
hi barath
i am Priyanshu Prajapati, currently pursuing BTech in UIET KANPUR in Computer Science with a specialization in AI(2021-2025). I am currently participating in competitions on Kaggle and also reading research papers. I am currently working on BERT models. I have learned supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning, as well as NLP and transformers. Now, I am learning BERT models. I am also a full-stack developer with very strong mathematics and analytical skills, especially in permutation, statistics, and probability. I know various programming languages and engage in problem-solving using R, Python, C++, C, and Go. Additionally, I have worked in cryptography, particularly cryptography in buffer overflows for bug detection. Currently, I am working on a research paper on LLMS. I am interested in data science or ML research. I also have skills in database management, SQL, and PostgreSQL, but ML is my proficiency. I am currently learning BERT models and researching LLMS.i am also very active in opensource communities
I want to work on Protein Language Modeling with DeepChem and Hugging Face Transformers i am already in finetuning of llms or stable diffusion training so i am eagerly want to contribute in this model training
i recently working on bert on new llm bugs with UIUC professors and finetuning and vector databases
Thank YOU ,
Priyanshu Prajapati
Hi everyone!
I am Marc, a medicinal chemist working in the biotech industry. With a hobbyist’s interest in coding, I’ve been exploring AI for some time now.
Recently, I decided to dive deeper into AI and am currently working through the Deepchem API. My goal isn’t to become an AI expert, but to develop a solid understanding of the field so I can effectively communicate with AI experts. Given the current AI hype, everyone seems to be offering a miracle solution for all medicinal chemistry problems. By studying ML/DL algorithms, I aim to clarify what’s realistically achievable today, identify key challenges, and understand the limitations of AI in this field.
Hello, I am Rishi Das from NIT Rourkela. I am pursuing engineering and I am interested in the field of Data Science and Machine Learning. I am very enthusiastic about training new varieties of model on various diversified datasets. Currently, I am working on research projects on Cancer treatment. My aim is to employ AI to get solution to the problems that the world ineveitably face like medical diagnosis and treatement, reducing carbon footprints, financial scam detection, etc. If anyone want to follow me then LinkedIn. Hope to connect with all soon!

Hello everyone. My name is Valentina Buoro, a pharmacist turned software engineer. I’m currently exploring the use of AI to improve healthcare and drug discovery and I’m super excited to have found DeepChem and its community.
Hello here,
My name is Zainab, and I’m currently interning with the ChEMBL team, where I’m exploring the targeted protein degradation (TPD) dataset in the database.
The GSOC project on improving new drug modality support (i.e., PROTACS) looks really interesting and related to what I do, and I’d love to contribute to that.
I’d also appreciate if I can be pointed in the right direction to get started and familiar with the commnity. Thank you.

Hello I’m Amogh S. I’m an Information Science undergrad at Smvit , Bangalore. This would be my first open source contribution . The reason I’m interested in contributing in DeepChem is the aim and goal of the organization and the frameworks that are used in the project. As I already have some experience working with Pytorch, tensorflow in my previous project I’m sure I can be useful and productive in contrubuting to DeepChem. Looking forward to work and connect with the mentors and to make my useful contributions for the organization. Thank you
