Based on our past experiences, we have decided to consolidate our various research training efforts in MMLI into a new program called the MATRIX (MMLI Advancing Talent and Research through Interdisciplinary EXcellence in AI and Chemistry).
We aim to better facilitate our effort to improve accessibility to the AI-chemistry community.
Our mission is to support your professional growth at every stage of your career. Register your interest by clicking on the button below.

Offers summer research opportunities designed for undergraduate and college-level students through the Summer Research Opportunities Program (SROP) at the University of Illinois.
The application for 2025 is now closed.
Please check again later in the Fall!
MATRIX-EDU [click to read more]
Focuses on improving research skills of high school and university/college level students through the MMLI Fellowship program, inspiring the next generation of researchers.
The MMLI Fellowship Program formalizes collaborations by welcoming individuals into our ecosystem to pursue research at the interface of AI and Chemistry. Fellows gain access to MMLI faculty, staff, projects, methods, and tools, enhancing their understanding of AI’s benefits in research and expanding their research pathways. The program includes support such as funding travel to MMLI partner institutions for events like annual retreats or symposiums, fostering deeper engagement with the MMLI community.
MATRIX-GRAD [click to read more]
Provides research training support to graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in computer science and chemistry, both from MMLI partner institutions and beyond.
This program is designed for during-semester research training, allowing non-MMLI participants to visit MMLI research groups for a semester to conduct their own research with guidance and mentorship from MMLI PIs.
MATRIX-PI [click to read more]
Engages researchers looking to expand their research portfolio in the AI-chemistry space.
Non-MMLI faculty are invited to collaborate with MMLI PIs by visiting one or more MMLI research groups for a defined period to pursue their own research with mentoring and support from MMLI PIs.
Through these programs, MMLI seeks to foster growth, innovation, and impactful collaborations across all career stages.
Core Goals
Through research trainings, specifically in AI and Chemistry with MMLI at the forefront, we aim to:
Advance talents, unlock potentials of individual student and researcher.
Promote interdisciplinary research excellence
