Research in the Cronin Group is motivated by the fascination for complex chemical systems, and the desire to construct complex functional molecular architectures that are not based on biologically derived building blocks.
As part of the Cronin Group’s ongoing commitment to open Science, on the 13th Feb 2019, five manuscripts were preprinted on the chemistry server Chemrxiv in order to showcase our future and upcoming work. The five manuscripts are:
A programmable chemical computer with memory and pattern recognition
Exploring the stochasticity of chemical processes in an automated robotic crystallization platform to generate random numbers
3) Intuition-Enabled Machine Learning Beats the Competition When Joint Human-Robot Teams Perform Inorganic Chemical Experiments
Emergence of Function and Selection from Recursively Programmed Polymerisation Reactions in Mineral Environments
Taming Combinatorial Explosion of the Formose Reaction via Recursion within Mineral Environments
