Big congratulations to Frank on receiving this year’s Hirschfelder Prize! Excited to welcome Frank and Cecilia to Madison in late Oct!
Thank you UW–Madison for this great honor! In 2016 I changed my group to AI4Science and went all-in on deep learning solutions for the molecular sciences. Best decision of my career in hindsight. Amazing what's become of that field - now AI for Science is a @msftresearch.bsky.social lab.
Congratulations to Frank Noé, Partner Research Manager at Microsoft Research AI for Science, who received the 2025–2026 Joseph O. Hirschfelder Prize in Theoretical Chemistry for pioneering contributions at the interface of AI and chemistry. msft.it/6015sqq4R
