Automation and AI in Molecular Materials Discovery Abstract - In my talk, I will focus on our first results towards establishing a high-throughput synthesis and analysis platform for peptides and peptide derivatives. This platform enables us to perform data-driven active learning for peptide design, in which we combine experiments with machine learning and AI. We
Terahertz probes of quantum matter: from pairing symmetry to high harmonics Quantum materials often harbor emergent orders and phases that reveal themselves at low-energy scales, around 1 to 10 meV. To investigate these collective behaviors, we turn to the terahertz energy regime—a crucial window for probing and controlling quantum phenomena. In this talk, I will
Peptoid Self-Assembly: from Minimal Peptoids to Cell Membrane Interactions King Hang Aaron Lau, PhD Associate Professor (Senior Lecturer) in Materials and Bionanotechnology Department of Pure and Applied Chemistry, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK Abstract- N-substituted glycine “peptoids” are close structural isomers of peptides and can be synthesized with both natural and non-natural sidechains. Their self-assembly is
