Meet Anatole von Lilienfeld, the inaugural Clark Chair in advanced materials discovery

Almost 10 questions with Acceleration Consortium (AC) member Anatole von Lilienfeld

From the internet

This chemist is reimagining the discovery of materials using AI and automation

Alán Aspuru-Guzik is using AI, robots, and even quantum computing to create the new materials that we will need to fight climate change.

OUR VISION

Advanced materials have the potential to transform our lives and our world for the better. We make these materials cheaper and faster.

How we do it

We build self-driving labs—that combine material science with the power of artificial intelligence, robotics, and advanced computing—to rapidly design and test new materials and molecules.
