May 30, 2024Join the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office’s (BETO) Chemical Catalysis for Bioenergy Consortium (ChemCatBio) on June 12, 2024, 2:00pm – 2:45pm ET, for a webinar on artificial intelligence (AI) for catalysis. AI has the potential to play a crucial role in accelerated catalyst design, discovery, and optimization of chemical processes for reducing emissions. With the help of a range of AI tools—such as machine learning, deep learning, and large language models—researchers can uncover useful guidelines for designing new and improved catalysts, for both low- and high-technology readiness level research activities.Alternative Fuels and Feedstocks Office
