Corrections, questions, disagreements and collaboration enquiries are all welcome. I would much rather be corrected than be wrong in public.
If you found an error
This is the message I most want to receive. Tell me which post, and which paragraph or figure, and what is wrong — a sentence is plenty. Corrections are made in public, the post carries its updated date, and you are credited by name unless you would rather not be.
If you are a student
If something here did not explain a concept well enough, say so and tell me where you got lost. That feedback changes how the next post gets written, and it is the single most useful thing a reader can send me. I cannot, in fairness, do anyone’s assignments or project work — but “I read this three times and still do not follow the third section” is a message I will always act on.
If you work on something adjacent
I work on atomistic simulation and machine-learned interatomic potentials at NIT Warangal. If you are working on something nearby — benchmarking, potential fitting, forming and processing, battery materials — or you would like a paper considered for the Paper of the Week series, do get in touch. I read a great deal more than I write about.
How to reach me
- LinkedIn — linkedin.com/in/mudineshvarma. The fastest route, and the one I check most reliably.
- A comment on the post itself — best for a correction or a question about a specific article, because everyone else reading that post then sees the answer too. Comments are open on every post and I read all of them.
What I cannot help with
Better to say this plainly than leave you waiting: I do not take on paid consulting, I do not write assignments or theses, and I cannot run simulations on someone else’s behalf. Everything here is written alongside a full-time PhD, so replies are sometimes slow — but they do come.
