SEPAWA CONGRESS, Berlin, Germany
Schrödinger is proud to be sponsoring the SEPAWA CONGRESS conference taking place on October 26th-28th, 2022 in Berlin, Germany. Join us for a presentation by Jeffrey Sanders, Principal Scientist at Schrödinger titled, "How digital molecular simulations will drive innovation in reformulation and sustainability of consumer packaged goods".
Speaker: Jeffrey Sanders, Principal Scientist
Location: Berlin, Germany
Date/Time: October 26 | 9:15 | Room 9
Abstract:
Molecular modeling has historically been viewed as a research tool with little connection back to commercial products. Computational power, expertise, precise knowledge of chemical space, along with mismanaged expectations has limited the impact of molecular modeling in industrial settings until recently. With advances in physics-based simulation methods and machine learning, molecular simulation is quickly becoming routine alongside experimentation. In this talk, the utility of modeling to develop new products, rationalize product (mis)behavior, and understand how modeling can empower researchers to drive innovation will be highlighted. Case studies will be discussed that illustrate how modeling, when correctly applied, can provide novel insight into design and selection of surfactant based formulations and interactions with packaging.
