"Gabriel Gomes believes the future of chemistry is as much about flasks and fume hoods as it is about code. A chemical engineer at Carnegie Mellon University, Gomes works at the intersection of chemistry and artificial intelligence. His goal is to automate the drudgery of laboratory research, making experiments faster, more accurate and easier to perform. His work has led him to create Coscientist: an intelligent agent that adapts large language models such as GPT-4 for automation and lab infrastructure."
"Gomes's path began in a small town in the Brazilian countryside, where he didn't own a computer until he was 19 years old. The first in his family to attend university, he found his calling at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, when a professor told him, All of chemistry is inside this Schrodinger equationall you need to do is solve it! "
Gabriel Gomes is a chemical engineer at Carnegie Mellon who integrates chemistry with artificial intelligence to automate laboratory research. He designed Coscientist, an intelligent agent that adapts large language models such as GPT-4 for laboratory automation and infrastructure. The automation aims to eliminate repetitive laboratory tasks, speeding experiments, improving accuracy, and reducing human error and fatigue. Gomes grew up in rural Brazil without a computer until age 19 and became the first in his family to attend university. A professor's remark about solving the Schrödinger equation led him to computational chemistry. Gomes advised the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy about intelligent systems in 2023–2024.
