Prof. Kulik will describe their efforts to accelerate the discovery of novel transition metal containing materials using machine learning. She will discuss how they have leveraged experimental data sets through both text mining and semantic embedding to uncover relationships between structure and function in molecular catalysts and metal-organic frameworks. Then she will describe how they have leveraged large datasets of synthesized materials to uncover those with novel function in polymer networks. She will describe how they demonstrate the success of their design strategy through macroscopically visible changes in network scale properties.
Construction Tech is one of the fastest growing areas of venture capital funding in the US. With over three billion in investments over the past year it is clear that Construction Tech will soon impact the ways we deliver building of all sizes. Moving forward we need new, rich ideas in software development to solve many of the building industries toughest problems. The talk will present a framework for home delivery directly from computers. Larry will show how builders will design and construct buildings from digital files using systems similar to 3D Printing.

This presentation will discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic will be like a bullet train to the future, dramatically accelerating many trends involving digital communication that were already underway and that will never return to the way they were before the pandemic. Examples discussed will include the kinds of jobs people will do, how and where they will work, how this will affect real estate, how people will shop and socialize, and how they will learn. The presentation will also suggest how new kinds of online work can help solve some of the near-term problems the pandemic creates.
