SUMMARY:Asian Consortium on Computational Materials Science (ACCMS) Webinar-42
DESCRIPTION:The Asian Consortium on Computational Materials Science (ACCMS) Global Centre at SRM University-AP\, Amaravati\, is organising a Webinar titled “AI-Driven Computational Materials Science: Integrating First-Principles Simulations\, HPC\, and Materials Informatics”. The talk will be delivered by Prof. Kenta Hongo\, Professor at the Center for Advanced Scientific Computing (CASC)\, JAIST. \nThe presentation reviews the evolution of computational materials research from conventional density functional theory (DFT) calculations to AI-assisted materials discovery. Topics include Bayesian optimisation\, computational discovery of superconducting hydrides\, mixed-anion compounds\, high-entropy alloys\, polymer informatics\, machine-learning-assisted design of functional materials\, the ChemAutoVision AutoML framework\, and JAIST’s newly deployed HAKUSAN supercomputer. \nAbstract \nArtificial intelligence (Al) is rapidly transforming computational materials science by enabling the seamless integration of first-principles simulations\, high-performance computing (HPC)\, and data-driven materials informatics. This talk reviews the evolution of computational materials research from conventional density functional theory (DFT) calculations toward modern Al-assisted materials discovery and discusses future perspectives for Al-driven scientific research. Recent advances at JAIST include Bayesian optimization for efficient materials exploration\, computational discovery of superconducting hydrides\, mixed-anion compounds\, and high-entropy alloys\, polymer informatics for high-thermal-conductivity materials\, and machine-learning-assisted design of functional materials. I will also introduce our recent development of ChemAutoVision\, an AutoML framework for molecular property prediction from two-dimensional chemical structure images\, demonstrating how Al can lower the barrier to applying machine learning in chemistry and materials science. The talk will also introduce the newly deployed HAKUSAN supercomputer at JAIST and discuss its role in supporting large-scale first-principles simulations\, Al-assisted scientific computing\, and education of the next generation of computational materials scientists. \nKey Details \n\nDate: August 24\, 2026\nTime: 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM (IST)\nTopic: AI-Driven Computational Materials Science: Integrating First-Principles Simulations\, HPC\, and Materials Informatics\nSpeaker: Prof. Kenta Hongo (Professor at the Center for Advanced Scientific Computing – CASC\, JAIST)\nOrganiser: Asian Consortium on Computational Materials Science (ACCMS) Global Centre\, SRM University-AP\, Amaravati

SUMMARY:University Distinguished Lecture - From Curiosity to Discovery — The Power of Scientific Inquiry
DESCRIPTION:SRM University-AP is hosting University Distinguished Lecture #26\, titled “From Curiosity to Discovery — The Power of Scientific Inquiry”. The session will feature Prof. Anantanarayanan Raman\, Senior Scientist (Health & Biosecurity) at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO)\, Floreat Park Campus\, Perth\, Australia\, as the distinguished speaker. \nThe lecture is designed to benefit students\, researchers\, and faculty members interested in scientific methodologies\, research innovation\, and the evolution of systematic inquiry. \nAbstract \nScientific inquiry’s strength and power lie in it being systematic and in the intellectual capacity to transform curiosity into a sound corpus of knowledge through observation\, testing\, and continuous iteration. This process energises efforts to distinguish fact from assumption\, solve intricate problems and convoluted challenges\, and shift towards ‘truth’ — the ‘scientific truth’. Greater clarity emerges because of newly accrued evidence. Scientific inquiry replaces conjectures with substantiations\, empowering us with a brilliant rational power to explain how the biophysical world operates and to arrive at reasoned conclusions. \nIn this presentation\, Prof. Raman will touch on the two key drivers of science — curiosity (the spark) and discovery (the fire). He will refer to two pivotal points of scientific inquiry: ‘logic’ and ‘epistemic openness’\, concluding with an analysis of how scientific inquiry has evolved and adapted under the post-modern era of globalisation. \nKey Details \n\nDate: Tuesday\, September 22\, 2026\nTime: 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM\nVenue: ALC-1\, 3rd Floor\, Homi J Bhabha Block\nTopic: From Curiosity to Discovery — The Power of Scientific Inquiry\nSpeaker: Prof. Anantanarayanan Raman (Senior Scientist\, Health & Biosecurity\, CSIRO\, Perth\, Australia
