Description

A Self-Driving Automated Molecular Synthesis and Formulation Platform. This LIEF will build a NSW-wide machine-learning powered, self-driving, automated chemical synthesis platform. These robotic systems will put us at the forefront of the revolutionary transformation of chemical synthesis and formulation into data rich disciplines. Based on technological advances in chemistry robots and machine learning, these specialised systems will carryout reaction and formulation optimisation with a range of chemical classes across scales. They will conduct online analysis of reaction outcomes and using machine learning algorithms operate in a self-driving mode to decide upon the next round of experiments. They will accelerate the optimisation of processes for advanced applications in medicines, mining and agriculture. . Scheme: Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities. Field: 3405 - Organic Chemistry. Lead: Prof Christopher Hyland
