🌞Happy Friday - new article out now!🔗doi.org/10.1039/D6DD...
Machine learning can identify patterns to make high-throughput predictions of the Michaelis constant. This work introduces a new approach, AS4Km, incorporating enzyme-substrate interface information by encoding the enzyme’s active site
Congratulations to both of their winners, in recognition of their excellent work!
🚨Issue 6 out now and #openaccess 🚨
pubs.rsc.org/en/jour...
Explore AI-designed and -implemented control systems for scanning microscopy, meet “RobInHood” the fume hood-based robot chemist, consider a new Perspective on active learning workflows in materials science, and much more!
The award from Digital Discovery goes to Theo Hatcher of the @uniofstandrews.bsky.social for "Modelling Small Molecules in SMOM Crystals".
The award from @pccp.rsc.org goes to Beth Raynor of the The University of Edinburgh for "Switching off Electron Delocalisation in Chalcogen Bonding Balances".
On the inside Front Cover:
✨ Ke Wang and colleagues present an AI-assisted workflow validating LLMs for scientific instrument control in a reproducible and safety-oriented template designed to mitigate risk to fragile instrumentation.

We're delighted to announce the winners of the best poster awards sponsored by Digital Discovery and Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics @pccp.rsc.org at this year's ScotChem Computational Chemistry Symposium:
On the Front Cover:
✨ Andrew Cooper and colleagues introduce "RobInHood", the robotic arm in a fume hood to automate chemical syntheses. Its abilities are tested against two materials research problems and a phthalimide synthesis. 🤖
