Polymer Genome: An Informatics Platform for Rational Polymer Dielectrics Design and Beyond
Tuesday, November 13, 2018 at 3:30pm to 4:30pm
MIT Campus, 66-110
The Materials Science and Engineering Seminar Series presents Prof. Rampi Ramprasad from the Georgia Institute of Technology, who will give a talk on "Polymer Genome: An Informatics Platform for Rational Polymer Dielectrics Design and Beyond." Refreshments will be served.
Abstract:
The Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) has heralded a sea change in the philosophy of materials design. In an increasing number of applications, the successful deployment of novel materials has benefited from the use of computational, experimental and informatics methodologies. Here, we describe our recent polymer discovery efforts, highlighting the role played by computational data generation and screening, targeted synthesis and characterization, polymer fingerprinting and machine-learning prediction models. These efforts have culminated in the creation of an online Polymer Informatics platform (https://www.polymergenome.org) to guide ongoing and future polymer discovery and design. Challenges that remain are examined, and systematic steps that may be taken to extend the applicability of such informatics efforts to a wide range of technological domains are discussed.
