Reaction Prediction & Benchmarking Co-op
Lila Sciences
AI-powered scientific discovery for medicines
Your Impact at LILA
Develop and evaluate machine learning methods supporting small molecule design and synthesis. Working with public and internal chemistry datasets, the co-op will pursue a focused research project in either reaction prediction and benchmarking or molecular property prediction for medicinal chemistry optimization.
Potential projects include building benchmarks to assess reaction prediction models and reaction plausibility, or developing and fine-tuning molecular property predictors using project-specific data. The primary project will be selected based on the candidate’s interests, experience, and team priorities. Expected outputs include reproducible data and evaluation workflows, benchmark results, and research recommendations to inform future model development and integration.

AI-powered scientific discovery for medicines
Lila.ai uses artificial intelligence to speed up scientific discovery in medicines and advanced materials. The system ingests large sets of scientific data, experimental results, and literature to identify patterns, generate hypotheses, and guide research programs. It differentiates itself by tackling deep scientific problems at scale and combining AI with domain expertise, rather than offering generic tools. The goal is to help humanity by delivering new medicines and materials that solve major biological and materials challenges through data-driven discovery.
