The Cronin Group

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.

Cronin Group Work Features in RSC Digital Futures report

Cronin group work on the exploration of chemical space using robots has been featured in the RSC Digital Futures report, which is “the output of a forum that gathered leading experts from different scientific fields and details how the new wave of technologies can turbocharge research speeds to respond to future global challenges”.

In a video interview, Prof Cronin describes how we can translate syntheses from chemical literature into code that can be implemented in robots, and how we can automate the exploration of chemical space to discover new molecules, and new insights into the origin of life.
