Shell.ai Scientific conference 2023​

Shell.ai Scientific Conference 2023​

4 - 5 October 2023

Design of Next-gen Materials, Molecules, Bio & Energy Systems​.

About Shell.ai Scientific Conference​

The world also needs to make the transition to a net-zero emissions energy system to tackle climate change. This creates a need to accelerate design of future energy systems, in alignment with accelerated development of materials/molecules and integration with biosciences. Focused experimentation, complemented by insights generated from computational sciences, recent progress on machine learning as well as artificial intelligence-based techniques and high-performance computing will fast-track the design of next-gen materials, molecules, bio and energy systems.

This conference aims to bring leading experts from domain sciences, experimentation, computations, and AI together to discuss and debate about the confluence of these emerging fields for accelerated energy transition.
