ECRO 2022 symposium

We are pleased to announce that we are chairing, with Antonella Di Pizio, the ECRO Symposium on Computation approaches for advancing research in the chemical senses

with the following program:

Joel Mainland (Monell Center): Neural networks learn a map of odor that achieves human-level performance at describing odor character

Jérémie Topin (Université Côte d'Azur): Odorant binding and receptor activation deciphered at the molecular level

Federica Genovese (Monell Center): Computational molecular interaction maps of signaling events within the olfactory epithelium

Claire de March (Duke University): Structural elucidation of mammalian odorant receptors

Fabrizio Fierro (Hebrew University): The antagonists' challenge: finding new molecules for bitter taste receptor inhibition

see you in Berlin september 3, 2022!

12th edition of GIRACT's European PhD in Flavor Research Awards - Best PhD Thesis Award

Happy to share that Cédric Bouysset received the Best PhD thesis award from Giract for his work on machine learning and molecular modeling approaches to advance the knowledge on chemosensory perception.

Congrats (again!) Cédric !

SophIA Summit 2021 : Olfaction & AI

Very nice talk from Matej Hladiš at @Summitsophia congress.

Can AI helps decoding olfaction and expanding the chemical space of odors? Definitely yes ! Even if a lot still needs to be done.

Thanks to the organizers of this great meeting!
