Abstract:
The essence and ultimate purpose of chemical engineering is the continuous improvement of the quality of life by the discovery of new drugs, developing new materials or reducing of economic and environmental cost in the production line. Artificial intelligence can learn, adapt and act to provide the necessary help to accelerate and automate the discovery of new materials and drugs, automate the experimental procedures and self-optimize processes.
Presented by:
Dr Panagiotis (Panos) Petsagkourakis, Postdoctoral Researcher at UCL Chemical Engineering.
