Towards the future of education and innovation in chemistry + AI

Education & Workforce Development

The MMLI isn’t just groundbreaking research… It’s also bringing that research into your hands!

We are revolutionizing the way chemistry is taught and practiced to capture the imagination of a new generation of molecule makers.  We are catalyzing this revolution by building upon our already established momentum of engagement with science teachers and students. Through state-of-the-art technology, tools, and curricula aligned with the NGSS guidelines, we aim to support a new workforce of educators, scientists, engineers and practitioners with skills in advanced chemical synthesis and artificial intelligence (AI).

Our mission is to democratize education in chemistry and artificial intelligence, extending these fields beyond our current scientific circles and cultivating a generation of well-equipped molecule makers.

Our initiatives strive to make our research, chemistry, and tools accessible to people of all ages. We offer a web-based tool called the Digital Molecule Maker in addition to more hands-on activities like our MMLI In a Box, Lab 217 Escape Room, and Molecule Maker Summer Camp, all designed to transform complex concepts into engaging educational experiences.

Whether you’re a member of the public, a K-12 student, a University student, an educator, or a researcher, explore the MMLI’s Education and Public Engagement activities. Stay tuned for future models of the Digital Molecule Maker and MMLI in a Box coming soon!
