Hello everyone,

Vishal Parmar here, Username: v-parmar. I am pursuing my Bachelor of Engineering degree in the field of Computer Science & Engineering at ITM Universe, Vadodara, Gujarat, which comes under Gujarat Technological University.

I have experience with Python and its various libraries like TensorFlow, Pandas, SKlearn, Numpy, Matplotlib, bs4, etc, and Front-end Web Development. Also, I have intermediate knowledge of Machine Learning technology. I like to solve real-life problems using ML and AI.

 This year I am trying for GSOC, which brings me here. So, I am interested in taking part as a contributor to GSOC projects. I already had made 1 PR.

Thanks & Regards.

Hello Vishal ,

Welcome to MDAnalysis, and thank you for your PR!

Participating to Google Summer of Code (GSoC)

GSoC 2023 has been announced by Google and the MDAnalysis organisation decided to re-apply this year. Likely we won't hear about whether or not MDAnalysis has been selected to participate to GSoC until the end of February. Until Google makes a decision on participating organisations, there is always a chance that MDAnalysis might not be selected this year.

For the time being you can have a look at the MDAnalysis FAQ for GSoC from the previous year:

   https://github.com/MDAnalysis/mdanalysis/wiki/GSoC-FAQ

We will most likely have a very similar process to 2022. You can have a look at the list of Project Ideas we intend to propose this year:

  https://github.com/MDAnalysis/mdanalysis/wiki/GSoC-2023-Project-Ideas

Please have a look at the "Relevant Skills" section for each project to make sure you have the relevant skills, or that you can acquire such skills during the application process. Given the  scope of MDAnalysis as scientific package for particle-based simulations, we especially value skills related to domain knowledge (molecular dynamics, computational chemistry, computational physics, ...) together with programming skills.

In the meantime, you can keep contributing to MDAnalysis. Stay tuned for more announcements about GSoC.

The MDAnalysis community looks forward working with you.

Best,
Rocco
