Programmable Droplets as Active Matter in a Reconfigurable Environment
Ivan Shmarov, Abhishek Sharma, Michael Jirasek +2
Exploring systems that bridge the gap between non living and living matter requires a reconfigurable environment coupled to synthetic systems capable of autonomous motion, adaptive…
From Knowledge to Action: Outcomes of the 2025 Large Language Model (LLM) Hackathon for Applications in Materials Science and Chemistry
Aritra Roy, Kevin Shen, Andrew MacBride +350
Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly changing how researchers in materials science and chemistry discover, organize, and act on scientific knowledge. This paper analyzes a broa…
Quantifying the Emergence of Selection Prior to Biological Evolution
Michael Jirasek, Abhishek Sharma, Mary Wong +2
Selection is central to biological evolution, yet there has been no general experimental framework for quantifying selection in chemical systems before life. Here we demonstrate th…
Constructing the Molecular Tree of Life using Assembly Theory and Mass Spectrometry
Amit Kahana, Alasdair MacLeod, Hessam Mehr +5
Here we demonstrate the first biochemistry-agnostic approach to map evolutionary relationships at the molecular scale, allowing the construction of phylogenetic models using mass s…
Determining Molecular Complexity using Assembly Theory and Spectroscopy
Michael Jirasek, Abhishek Sharma, Jessica R. Bame +9
Determining the complexity of molecules has important applications from molecular design to understanding the history of the process that led to the formation of the molecule. Curr…
