Presenter Hein-Pieter van Braam, Ramatak Inc I have a wide range of interests, the line between professional and personal interests is very blurry for me. I enjoy programming ‘system level’ programs, mostly things that users of computers don’t directly interact with. I also enjoy building automation systems to help other engineers do their jobs faster… Continue reading Hein-Pieter van Braam | User friendly Molecular System Design @ MSD Workshop 2023
