Machine Learning and Chemistry

IPST and Chemistry/Biochemistry Assistant Professor Pratyush Tiwary is organizing an NSF workshop on machine learning titled "Machine Learning and Chemistry: Challenges on the Way Forward".

The dual-purpose workshop, scheduled for November 16-18, 2019, will be a cross-talk between experts using machine learning (ML) in different aspects of chemistry, such as designing models of molecular interactions, drug design, enhanced sampling, designing chemical synthesis routes and others. As well, the workshop will have a strong emphasis on considering questions concerning the software side of using ML in chemistry.

Located in Room 0112 (Marker Seminar Room) of the Chemistry Building, the workshop should also have hands-on tutorials on machine learning in physical sciences. Limited spots (with no associated fees) for UMD participants are available with deadline for application September 15, 2019. Please submit application as outline in the instructions available for this event.
