Addis Fuhr: Working to control impurities in materials

#artificialintelligence

ORNL Weinberg Fellow Addis Fuhr uses quantum chemistry and machine learning methods to advance new materials. When Addis Fuhr was growing up in Bakersfield, California, he enjoyed visiting the mall to gaze at crystals and rocks in the gem store. "I was always fascinated and loved how the different crystals looked and how they would get their different colors," he said. "I now know it's from impurities." It was impossible to see at the time, but the future Alvin M. Weinberg Fellow at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory had identified a potential career option.
