SUMMARY:(Gen)AI in Chemistry Education Workshop
DESCRIPTION:KEY DETAILS\n\n\n\n\nDATE21 July\, 2025 TIME10:30 – 16:30\nwith optional networking drinks until 18:00 COST£25 \n\n\n\nRegistration closed\n\n\n\nREAD THE BLOG\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEVENT LOCATION\n\n\n\n\nChemistry Department\, South Kensington Campus\, Imperial College LondonChemistry / Sir Ernst Chain Building 7 Imperial College Rd\, South Kensington\, SW72AZ  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease Note: This event has passed and applications are now closed. \n\n\n\nOverview:\n\n\n\nThis workshop is being run by the AIchemy Hub\, in association with the teaching team from Imperial College Department of Chemistry. We will explore how (Gen)AI is starting to change the landscape of undergraduate chemistry education\, and discuss its applications in chemistry teaching\, alongside the benefits and challenges associated with its use.   \n\n\n\nWhile some Chemistry departments have been early adopters in using (Gen)AI in chemistry teaching\, we are aware of others that are yet to incorporate (Gen)AI into their curriculum. This workshop will therefore provide case study examples while also providing opportunities for wider discussion on the topic.  \n\n\n\nThe morning sessions will outline how (Gen)AI is being used in teaching at Imperial\, including showcasing its benefits through guiding experiments\, and the challenges associated with using (Gen)AI in chemistry. The afternoon sessions will cover how other chemistry departments are using AI (through invited presentations) and allow time for group discussion on the use of AI in education (chemistry and beyond).  \n\n\n\nThe workshop has limited spaces and due to the potential interest across all chemistry departments in the UK\, we have set up an application process to ensure all chemistry departments have the opportunity to send a representative. \n\n\n\nApplication Process:\n\n\n\n\nApplications are open to all interested individuals involved in chemistry education.\n\n\n\nThere will be the opportunity to submit an abstract\, alongside the application\, for those who would like to present how their department is using AI in chemistry teaching. Presentation time approx. 10 mins depending on numbers wishing to present. \n\n\n\nApplication deadline is has been extended til Friday 6th June 2025.\n\n\n\nThe expectation is that all universities will be guaranteed at least one place at the workshop (space permitting). \n\n\n\nApplication outcomes disseminated in mid-June\, along with confirmations to those selected to present. A payment link will be sent to those whose attendance is confirmed. Payment is required to secure your place. If payment is not received by 30th June\, the place may be offered to another applicant.\n\n\n\nCancellation policy – If you are no longer able to attend after confirmation\, please notify us as soon as possible so your place can be offered to another department.\n\n\n\nShould space become available\, those universities selected to present\, will have the first opportunity for an additional representative to attend.\n\n\n\nRemaining places will be allocated randomly.\n\n\n\n\nContact details:\n\n\n\nFor questions related to this event please contact the AIchemy project management team at info@aichemy.ac.uk.We are delighted to welcome you to the first talks in the AIchemy Hub’s monthly webinar series. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe Organising Committee:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlchemy HubDepartment of Chemistry (Imperial)Dr Ben Alston (University of Liverpool) Dr Chris Mellor (Imperial) Caroline Woods (University of Liverpool)Aysel Sarzosa (Imperial) Dr Benji Fenech Salerno Dr Rebecca L.

SUMMARY:AIchemy’s Monthly Webinar Series – July 2025
DESCRIPTION:KEY DETAILS\n\n\n\n\nDATE23 July 2025 TIME14:00 – 15:00 COSTFree \n\n\n\nREGISTration closed\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are delighted to welcome you to our AIchemy Hub’s monthly webinar series. \n\n\n\nThis month’s talks: \n\n\n\nProfessor Jason Hein – Real-Time Data and Modular Robotics for Scalable Workflow Automation The future of chemistry demands experimental systems that are flexible\, data rich\, and built for iteration. This talk will explore how modular automation platforms that integrate real time analytics with robotic execution are transforming how we develop\, optimize\, and scale chemical processes. I will share our experience building reconfigurable systems that connect high resolution analytical tools with programmable robotics to drive autonomous workflows across applications from crystallization to liquid-liquid extraction. Two key examples will be highlighted: DirectInjection\, a real time HPLC-MS integration system that enables online monitoring and control in complex reaction environments; and IvoryOS\, an open source orchestration framework designed to coordinate modular hardware across diverse lab tasks. Together\, these tools support scalable\, chemist-in-the-loop workflows that balance autonomy with insight and help accelerate discovery while preserving the nuance of expert-driven chemistry. \n\n\n\nSriram Vijayakrishnan – Autonomous Mobile Robots For Exploratory Synthetic Chemistry \n\n\n\nAutonomous laboratories can accelerate discoveries in chemical synthesis\, but this requires automated measurements coupled with reliable decision-making Most autonomous laboratories involve bespoke automated equipment  and reaction outcomes are often assessed using a single\, hard-wired characterization technique. Any decision-making algorithms must then operate using this narrow range of characterization data. By contrast\, manual experiments tend to draw on a wider range of instruments to characterize reaction products\, and decisions are rarely taken based on one measurement alone. Our modular workflow combines mobile robots\, an automated synthesis platform\, a liquid chromatography–mass spectrometer and a benchtop nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer. A heuristic decision-maker processes the orthogonal measurement data\, selecting successful reactions to take forward and automatically checking the reproducibility of any screening hits. This strategy is particularly suited to exploratory chemistry that can yield multiple potential products\, as for supramolecular assemblies. \n\n\n\nFollowing the presentations\, there will be time for questions from the audience. \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\nJason Hein Professor of Chemistry\n\n\n\n\n\nSriram Vijayakrishnan Postdoctoral Researcher\n\n\n\n\n\nGabriella Pizzuto – Webinar Chair Lecturer (Assistant Professor)
