Autonomous Laboratory
We robotize and automate challenging materials science processes — powder handling, mixing, coating — combining robotic precision with expert tacit knowledge to build fully autonomous experimental systems.
Mathematical Modeling for Autonomous Experimentation
We build the theoretical foundations for autonomous experimentation — Bayesian experimental design, optimal design, and optimal stopping — alongside physics-based models for optimal measurement and process control.
Materials Informatics
We apply AI and machine learning to large-scale quantum-beam datasets to map material space and uncover hidden properties, and develop inverse design models to discover new materials from desired specifications.
