Biography
Philippe Schwaller joined EPFL as a tenure-track assistant professor in the Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering in February 2022. He leads the Laboratory of Artificial Chemical Intelligence, which works on AI-accelerated discovery and synthesis of molecules. Philippe is also a core PI of the NCCR Catalysis, a Swiss centre for sustainable chemistry research, education, and innovation. He belongs to a new generation of scientists with a broad set of skills – in his case, a combination of chemistry, materials science, computer science, and experimental research.Teaching & PhD

Practical programming in Chemistry
This course offers a comprehensive, practical introduction to computer programming tailored for chemists and chemical engineers. Python is the main language used throughout the course.
AI for chemistry
The AI for Chemistry course will focus on teaching students how to use machine learning algorithms and techniques to analyze and make predictions about chemical data. The course will cover topics such as the basics of machine learning, common algorithms and their applications in chemistry.
AI in chemistry and beyond: Trends in the field
Should have expertise in chemistry, physics or lite and material sciences. Although a very good knowledge in Al-based algorithms is required to fully understand the technical details, a basic knowledge is sufficient to understand the potential of these methods and their applications.
