The State of Chemicals & Materials R&D
The Role of Technology and Automation in Discovery
The pace of discovery in chemicals and materials science is increasing, but so are the challenges. Researchers face fragmented data, inconsistent workflows, and the growing complexity of modern R&D. As AI and automation become more integrated into scientific research, they offer the potential to streamline processes, enhance collaboration, and make experimentation more reproducible. In this webinar, Jess Sager, Practice Lead at Dotmatics, will explore how emerging technologies are reshaping materials R&D.
They’ll discuss the barriers scientists face in structuring and analyzing experimental data, and how AI-driven insights and workflow automation are enabling faster, more informed decision-making. The session will also feature a live demonstration showcasing how digital tools are being used to connect research data, optimize processes, and accelerate discovery.
What You’ll Learn:
Overcoming Data Silos – Why fragmented research workflows slow progress and how technology is bridging the gap.
Automation in Experimentation – How automated processes are improving efficiency and reproducibility in materials science.
Connecting the Research Pipeline – The importance of structuring data for better decision-making and faster iteration.
The Future of Materials R&D – How digital transformation is shaping the next generation of scientific breakthroughs.
This session is designed for researchers, R&D leaders, and scientists looking to better understand how technology is transforming materials science in R&D.
