Synopsis
Artificial intelligence is increasingly revolutionizing chemistry. We are witnessing the impact of new methods and practical applications in many diverse areas of chemistry. Following on the successes of eight annual “Artificial Intelligence in Chemistry” meetings starting in 2018, we are pleased to announce that the Chemical Information & Computer Applications Group (CICAG) and Biological & Medicinal Chemistry Sector (BMCS) of the Royal Society of Chemistry are once again organizing a conference to present the latest advances in AI and machine learning in chemistry. The meeting will be held over two and half days and will combine aspects of artificial intelligence and deep machine learning methods to applications in chemistry. The programme will include a mixture of keynote talks, panel discussions, oral presentations, flash presentations, posters and opportunities for open debate, networking and discussion.
This year’s meeting will again feature the popular “Introduction to AI in Chemistry” workshop on Day 1, including an introduction to Python and Jupyter notebooks.
Workshop on Monday 20th September
One of the key pieces of feedback from the previous meetings was the desire for an introduction to AI/ML for Chemistry. For scientists new to the area the acronyms and terminology can be a significant barrier. For those who are already involved in AI/ML the whole scientific field is expanding and changing so rapidly it is becoming impossible to keep abreast of the latest developments. So, the 2027 meeting will include a half-day workshop prior to the main meeting to provide this introduction.
Who should attend
This meeting will be of interest to scientists of any level of experience from academia and industry.
