The University of Toronto and Université de Montréal have received a combined $325 million from the federal government for AI research initiatives.

The Acceleration Consortium designs new materials with AI and synthesizes them in-house with autonomous robots — a process that speeds up scientific discovery by decades, it says.

AlphaFold accelerates artificial intelligence powered drug discovery: efficient discovery of a novel CDK20 small molecule inhibitor”) has applied AlphaFold to

A new study has successfully used AlphaFold, an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered protein structure database, to accelerate the design and synthesis of a drug to treat the most common type of primary liver cancer.

In less than a month, researchers have used AlphaFold, an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered protein structure database, to design and synthesize a potential drug to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common type of primary liver cancer.

Scientists at the University of Toronto have successfully tested the use of machine learning models to guide the design of long-acting injectable drug formulations.

University of Toronto professors Gillian Hadfield, director of the Schwartz Reisman Institute for Technology & Society, and Anatole von Lilienfeld, of the department of chemistry in the Faculty of Arts & Science, have been named Canada CIFAR AI Chairs in recognition of their global leadership in art

With the goal of accelerating scientific research through the application of artificial intelligence, Schmidt Futures is investing $148-million in nine global universities, including the University of Toronto.

From keeping wind turbines ice-free to catalytically converting waste carbon dioxide into useful products, advanced materials will be critical for developing the sustainable technologies of the future. And a new system known as the ‘Sputtertron’ could help find them.

As it builds a global community to accelerate the discovery of materials for a healthier, more sustainable future, the Acceleration Consortium at the University of Toronto recently welcomed a visit from one of its new industry partners: Merck KGaA, D
