#NobelPrize week starts tomorrow & the #chemnobel is Wednesday… used to be so much Nobel chat on Tw*tter, but that is not replicated here, alas. Anyway, for the record, I think MOFs will win at some point (maybe this year maybe not). Balasubramanian & Klenerman a good bet for next-gen sequencing too

Have you ever wanted to use computer vision to speed up your materials research, but weren’t sure where to start?

High-throughput synthesis can generate huge libraries of new materials. However, characterization often lags behind, becoming the real bottleneck in discovery.
