On Thursday July 31st speakers Prof. Gerard McGlacken, Dr Davide Tiana, Dr Stig Hellebust and Dr Marco Dalla (Insight) were joined by Prof. Olaf Wiest (深夜亚洲福利久久 of Notre Dame and Director of the US Centre for Computer Assisted Synthesis) for a mini-symposium on 鈥�Machine Learning, Computation and Chemistry鈥�. Attendees included those from Academia and Industry (Pfizer, Eli Lilly and others).

"One of the most exciting and dynamic areas of research in Chemistry just now is at the interface with Machine Learning, with the potential to significantly impact on the way we advance the creation of knowledge across all aspects of Chemistry and enhance applications. Today's symposium provides an ideal opportunity to discuss this area, both in academic research and industrial applications. Sincere thanks to Ger for organising the mini-symposium, to the key-note speaker Olaf Wiest from Notre Dame and all the attendees," said Prof. Anita Maguire, Head of the School of Chemistry and Director of UCC Future Pharmaceuticals.

The symposium was supported by InTeleCat, a project led by Prof. Gerard McGlacken, involving Prof. Olaf Wiest, Prof. Abigail Doyne (ULCA) and Sofiya Evenko (UCC PhD student) through a Naughton Fellowship.

InTeleCat is also supported by Eli Lilly. 鈥淭his (InTeleCat) is a very exciting project which will leverage our HPT facility in Indianapolis鈥�this is the future of drug development鈥� Dr Scott Frank, Associate Vice-President, Eli Lilly.
