Abstract
PySCF is a Python-based general-purpose electronic structure platform that supports first-principles simulations of molecules and solids as well as accelerates the development of new methodology and complex computational workflows. This paper explains the design and philosophy behind PySCF that enables it to meet these twin objectives. With several case studies, we show how users can easily implement their own methods using PySCF as a development environment. We then summarize the capabilities of PySCF for molecular and solid-state simulations. Finally, we describe the growing ecosystem of projects that use PySCF across the domains of quantum chemistry, materials science, machine learning, and quantum information science.

Abstract
Type1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is the first recognized and the most common manifestation of IgG4-related disease. However, AIP patient presented with neuropathy in the extremities have not been reported previously. We reported a rare combination of autoimmune pancreatitis and peripheral neuropathy on an IgG4-related disease patient based on histological features to expand the clinical spectrum of IgG4-related disease.
