Following our introduction webinar on Bunsen for materials science, we are launching a deep-dive, 3-part webinar series dedicated to Bunsen, Schrödinger’s agentic AI co-scientist. We’ll show how Bunsen is helping polymers, energy storage, and chemical reactivity teams navigate complex, multidimensional design spaces, identify data gaps and modeling risks, and prioritize the most informative candidates for further computation or experiments. By pairing domain-trained generative AI with rigorous physics-based simulation engines (quantum mechanics, molecular dynamics, and machine learning), Bunsen plans, executes, and analyzes end-to-end R&D workflows using natural language guidance.

Join us for this series featuring demonstrations where our scientists show directly how your team can leverage Bunsen for specific applications to accelerate innovation, de-risk experimental testing, and unlock high-performing candidates faster than ever before.

What you’ll see in the session:

  • Direct Bunsen to generate and screen polymers and formulations for compatibility and key performance properties such as Tg

  • How Bunsen autonomously orchestrates atomistic building, automated equilibration, and property predictions without manual setup

  • Extract data and build formulation based ML models

Our Speakers

Andrea Browning

Senior Director of Polymers and Soft Matter, Schrödinger

Andrea leads initiatives in polymer and soft matter simulations. Prior to Schrödinger, Andrea was a lead research engineer and project manager at Boeing, where she focused on translating engineering problems into fundamental materials insights. She brings over a decade of experience in connecting industrial and engineering problems to root materials issues and how simulations can be used to inform industrial decisions. Andrea earned her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of California, Santa Barbara, where she was a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow.

Michael Rauch

Senior Director, Global Portfolio Leader, Schrödinger

Michael earned his Ph.D. from Columbia University in synthetic organometallic chemistry as an NSF Graduate Research Fellow before pursuing a postdoctoral role in organic chemistry at the Weizmann Institute of Science as a Zuckerman Postdoctoral Scholar. Michael is particularly interested in green, sustainable chemistry and transforming the way that synthetic chemists utilize molecular modeling via practical education.
