A virtual presentation by
Dr. Katherine Bay, Senior Scientist at Schrödinger
Abstract: Molecular modeling provides a powerful set of tools that are used in the life sciences industry to simulate molecular behavior in chemical or biological systems, making it a key component in many areas of research, including drug discovery. For more than 30 years, Schrödinger has worked tirelessly to improve human health and quality of life by transforming the way therapeutics and materials are discovered. At Schrödinger, we believe that true breakthroughs in therapeutics and materials design come from better molecules. Our global team has pioneered the leading computational platform for molecular discovery, leveraging physics and machine learning to accurately simulate and predict key properties of billions of novel molecules across vast chemical space. This talk will demonstrate how the Schrödinger Education team scales computational chemistry education in an evolving educational and professional landscape.
Speaker's Bio: Dr. Katherine Bay is a Senior Scientist responsible for leading the Teaching with Schrödinger program. She develops academic curricula that integrate Schrödinger’s molecular modeling tools in the classroom. Before joining Schrödinger, she was an Assistant Professor of Organic Chemistry and earned her Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from UCLA.
