Schmidt Sciences: AI for Actionable Matter Modeling

To explore whether AI-driven methods can reliably predict the material and molecular properties that determine technological function in the real world—defects, interfaces, disorder, and dynamics operating at multiple length and time scales. If this pilot uncovers compelling evidence, it may unlock a significantly larger, multi-year investment in this space.
Funding: Track I – up to $100K (6 – 12 months), Track II – $100K – $500K (12 – 18 months)
