CCDC Webinar: The 7th Blind Test of CSP Methods: Triumphs, Challenges and Insights
Thursday, 26th of September – 4 pm (BST)/ 5 pm (CEST)/ 11 am (EDT)
Speaker: Lily Hunnisett, Computational Solid-State Scientist
Crystal structure prediction (CSP) seeks to predict the most likely crystal structures of a compound from only a 2D chemical structure. Since 1999, the CSP blind tests have brought scientists together from both academia and industry to test prediction methods against real life examples. The periodic challenges set by the organisers have supported the rapid advancement of CSP methods, most recently demonstrated by the 7th CSP Blind test which involved 28 research groups across 14 different countries.
During this webinar, we’ll show you the results from the 7th CSP Blind Test:
- How many groups generated the experimental structure(s)?
- Were the stabilities of experimental structures accurately calculated?
- The Structure Ranking results.
- Key triumphs and emerging challenges for CSP methods.
Who should attend:
- Solid-state computational chemists
- Data scientists working with chemical data.
- Solid form scientists in academia or industry.
- Cheminformaticians.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to learn about the impact and relevance of the CSP Blind Test in industrial settings such as pharmaceutical research.
