📆 Join Alex Tkatchenko at #UofT next Tues, Jan 31, 4:30pm in the Sandford Fleming Building's Agora room 3208-3210 (3rd floor) for a talk on Fully #Quantum (Bio)Molecular Simulations: Dream or Reality. No RSVP required, all welcome!
#Postdoc applications due this Fri Jan 27! Apply to be one of 6 #postdoctoral fellows with the Acceleration Consortium for a chance to work with the best and brightest in accelerated molecular and materials #discovery
at #UofT and around the world. http://bit.ly/ac-fellows-2023
Call for proposals – 2023 AC postdoctoral fellowships

We’re once again accepting applications for the Acceleration Consortium’s (AC) postdoctoral fellowship program. Based at the University of Toronto, the AC is a global community of academia, government, and industry who are accelerating the discovery of new materials and molecules needed for a sustainable future.

New research uses #AlphaFold and #AI to accelerate the design and synthesis of a novel drug to treat liver cancer––marking the first successful application of AlphaFold to hit identification process in drug discovery. This study is led by the #UofT’s Acceleration Consortium director @aspuru, Chemistry Nobel laureate Michael Levitt, and Insilico Medicine founder and CEO Alex Zhavoronkov. https://acceleration.utoronto.ca/news/new-study-uses-alphafold-and-ai-to-accelerate-design-of-novel-drug-for-liver-cancer

"An automated high-throughput robotic platform for accelerated battery and fuels discovery - DIGIBAT" was finally funded by UKRI (bid led by Magda Titirici). Thanks for your support as partner @acceleration_c. The #Chemiverse robots are coming! 

"This is a perfect example of a ‘Before AI’ and an ‘After AI’ moment and shows how drug delivery can be impacted by this multidisciplinary research.”

Published today in Nature Communications, new research by Acceleration Consortium members Dr. Christine Allen and @aspuru demonstrates the potential for #machinelearning to accelerate innovative drug delivery technologies. https://bit.ly/3WZPpXd
