In August, Beijing hosted the 26th International Conference on Physical Organic Chemistry (ICPOC). Pivotal report at the event was delivered by Valentine Ananikov, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Head of Laboratory of Metal-Complex and Nanoscale Catalysts at Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry, and Member of Scientific Committee of the VYZOV Prize.
The report was dedicated to the use of artificial intelligence in the development of new catalysts. Valentine Ananikov pointed out that AI also opens up new opportunities for scientists: it helps accelerate research, analyze huge amounts of data, and predict the behavior of complex chemical systems.
"This technology can radically change the approach to chemical research, increasing the accuracy and reducing the costs of developing innovative solutions. The practitioners in modern science are actively discussing whether artificial intelligence can replace chemists," added the scholar. You can find further details about the topic at the official website of the Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Mr. Ananikov also mentioned the ongoing discussions regarding the need to provide prompt responses to advanced challenges in science.
"Given the rapid growth of new academic fields, significant challenges arise due to the insufficient rate of evaluation and recognition of research by the international academic community," he said. "The major challenge is the need to quickly identify and incentivize promising scientific works so that they could receive the support that ensures faster development."
The establishment of new prizes and awards is a critical tool for addressing this challenge. Valentine Ananikov believes that this helps attract the attention of a wide range of scientists and investors to the research as well as emphasize its importance.
"Awards inspire scientists to new achievements, motivating them to carry out ambitious projects that can lead to breakthrough discoveries," said Mr. Ananikov.
It is equally important that the awards bolster international cooperation, bring together scientists from different countries, and foster the exchange of knowledge and best practices. This benefits the development of science in general and accelerates the practical implementation of advanced technologies.

"Discussions held at the international forum served as another reminder that the activities of the Vyzov Foundation are welcome throughout the world. I would like to wish the Foundation continued success, especially in developing the international category," concluded Valentine Ananikov.
The 26th International Conference on Physical Organic Chemistry was organized by the Tsinghua University. This event invited the attention of leading researches from various countries and was attended by more than 700 scientists and students. The conference was endorsed by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), an international organization in the field of chemistry that sets the standards and promotes chemistry on the international stage.
