This can sometimes make these tools frustrating to install and use. Turning these tools into reliable, maintainable resources for the broader community requires testing infrastructure, clear documentation, and long-term support. The Rosetta Commons provides resources, staff, and training to help make this process straightforward and rewarding for developers and contributors, while helping reduce the frustration users often experience when installing and using new tools developed in the community.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>Bio:</u><br>\r\nIn this seminar, Hope Woods (Technical Product Lead) and Rachel Clune (Documentation Writer) will highlight several Rosetta Commons resources and discuss the benefits of hosting software within the Rosetta Commons infrastructure. They will also describe their work with developers of tools such as Foundry, HBDesigner, AtomWorks, and FrustraMPNN to help ensure these projects can be maintained and supported by the community over time. Finally, they will outline pathways for researchers interested in bringing their own tools into the Rosetta Commons ecosystem.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>Zoom link</u> for attending remotely: <a href=\"https://epfl.zoom.us/s/65780945453\" target=\"_blank\">https://epfl.zoom.us/s/65780945453</a>", "image_description": "Prof. Cecilia Clementi", "creation_date": "2025-02-11T00:28:10", "last_modification_date": "2026-04-07T16:55:57", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "ELE 117", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==ELE%20117", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/69492794190", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://rosettacommons.org/2025/05/15/welcome-rachel-clune-and-hope-woods-to-the-open-rosetta-team/\">Dr. Rachel Clune and Hope Woods</a>, Open Rosetta Team", "organizer": "<a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/bruno.correia?lang=en\">Prof. Bruno Correia</a>, Laboratory of Protein Design and Immunoengineering (<a href=\"https://lpdi.epfl.ch\">LPDI</a>), Institute of Bioengineering (IBI), École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL)", "contact": "<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]?subject=Cecilia%20Clementi%20seminar%20on%20Feb%2013%2C%202025\">Anna Diaz</a>, Laboratory of Protein Design and Immunoengineering (LPDI), Institute of Bioengineering (IBI), École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL)", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/115516/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/111/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/416/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71405, "title": "AI & Compute - Research Computing Platform (RCP) - Exchange session", "slug": "ai-compute-research-computing-platform-rcp-exch-26", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/ai-compute-research-computing-platform-rcp-exch-26", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32752/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32752/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32752/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-04-22", "end_date": "2026-04-22", "start_time": "14:00:00", "end_time": "15:30:00", "description": "<p>The<strong> <a href=\"https://ai.epfl.ch/\">EPFL AI Center </a></strong>is delighted to invite you to join the exchange session about the <strong><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/research/facilities/rcp/\">Research Computing Platform (RCP)</a></strong>.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nAre you building, training ML models?

Rice paddy soils are rich in organic carbon, and the conventional understanding has been that organic carbon enhances microbial arsenic methylation by fueling microbial activity. This presentation will describe a series of recent investigations — spanning pure culture to greenhouse-scale experiments — that challenge this conceptual model. First, the presentation will describe the role of carbon catabolite repression (CCR) in regulating cellular uptake and subsequent enzymatic methylation of arsenite. A combination of biosensor, gene expression, and arsenic speciation analyses demonstrate that sugars lead to CCR and a decrease in arsenic methylation, while low molecular weight organic acids do not impact arsenite uptake. The presentation will then examine couplings between methanogenesis and arsenic demethylation, wherein a greater abundance of methylotrophic carbon substrates (methanol, methylamines) promote arsenic demethylation by methanogens and limit the accumulation of methylated arsenic compounds. A genome-resolved metatranscriptomic analysis of anaerobic soil slurry experiments resolved links between methylotrophic substrate utilization and arsenic demethylation, while greenhouse experiments showed that higher levels of methanogenesis in soils were associated with lower concentrations of methylated arsenic in rice grains. Taken together, these results provide a more nuanced understanding of how utilization of distinct carbon substrates impacts arsenic methylation-demethylation dynamics, and provides mechanistic insights into how paddy soil management practices influence arsenic speciation in rice.</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography:</strong>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"page\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">Dr. Matthew Reid is an associate professor in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Cornell University and directs the Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Engineering Research Group.

We want to model errors in gates. Logic gates on physical qubits are modeled by process matrices, derived from theory or estimated from tomography. But describing logical gates on logical qubits demands a richer model — specifically, detector error models — that can describe QEC syndrome data. I’ll introduce detector error models and summarize three recent papers in which we show how to estimate detector error models from data [<a data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"0\" href=\"https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.14643\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.14643\">https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.14643</a>], how to simulate arbitrary small Markovian errors in Clifford circuits [<a data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"1\" href=\"https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.15128\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.15128\">https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.15128</a>], and how to generate detector error models from arbitrary circuit-level Markovian errors [<a data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"2\" href=\"https://arxiv.org/abs/2603.18457\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https://arxiv.org/abs/2603.18457\">https://arxiv.org/abs/2603.18457</a>].<br>\r\n<br>\r\n2. \"<strong>Randomized measurements for large-scale quantum experiments\" - </strong> <strong>Benoit Vermersch</strong><br>\r\nThe randomized measurements toolbox is now routinely used in quantum experiments to estimate fundamental quantum properties, such as entanglement [1].<br>\r\nWhile experimentalists appreciate the simplicity and robustness aspects of such measurement protocols, a challenge for theorists is to design strategies for overcoming statistical errors using \"cheap\" polynomial resources in system size.<br>\r\nIn this context, I will present recent upgrades to the randomized measurements toolbox that address this challenge for large-scale quantum states that are relevant to the field of quantum simulation. In particular, I will discuss efficient protocols for measuring entanglement [2] and performing state tomography [3]. <br>\r\n <br>\r\n[1] A. Elben, S. T. Flammia, H.-Y. Huang, R. Kueng, J.
