Innovate big, think “small”: Optimizing formulations at the molecular level with physics-powered AI
April 27, 2025
AOCS Annual Meeting 2025 – Portland, OR
Schrödinger-hosted workshop, followed by lunch and networking
In today’s rapidly evolving consumer industry, innovation is no longer optional – it’s essential. As demand shifts toward safer, healthier, and more sustainable products, scientists can’t afford to miss out on cutting-edge computational technologies to stay ahead.
Join us for this two-hour workshop on the practical applications of molecular scale, physics-informed AI for research scientists. This workshop is designed for researchers who are developing diverse products – from foods to detergents. Learn how computational approaches can leverage even limited available experimental data to predict ingredient and formulation behaviors at the atomic scale, with the goal to optimize product stability, solubility, and performance. This approach streamlines formulation development, minimizes trial-and-error, and reveals key mechanisms behind complex behaviors – such as emulsion stability and the effects of processing conditions on ingredients.
Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of how these technologies can improve decision-making, reduce costs, and enhance sustainability.
The workshop will cover:
1. Overview of Schrödinger’s molecular simulation and AI/ML platform
2. Case studies showcasing successful industry applications
3. Demos of physics-powered AI for formulation modeling
4. Q&A session
5. Opportunities for hands-on work with Schrödinger’s software
