Current approaches to develop molecules for specific applications, however, are intuition-driven, mired in slow iterative design and test cycles, and ultimately limited by the specific molecular expertise of the chemist who has to test each candidate molecule by hand.<\/p>\n<p>Today, DARPA announced the Accelerated Molecular Discovery (AMD) program, which aims to develop new, AI-based systematic approaches that increase the pace of discovery and optimization of high-performance molecules. A Proposers Day webinar describing the goals of the program is scheduled for Oct.18, 2018.

Government partners will evaluate performer developments and test their ability to identify new molecules with specific combinations of functional properties that may be relevant to specific DoD application requirements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are currently around 140 million known molecules, but the space of potential molecules is vastly larger than that, upwards of 10<sup>60<\/sup>,\u201d Fischer said. \u201cIn DARPA\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.darpa.mil\/program\/make-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Make-It<\/a>\u00a0program, we\u2019ve developed advanced ways to efficiently synthesize known molecules.
