BioPACIFIC MIP MAPS

The machine assisted product screening (MAPS) tool is bridging an unexplored gap between synthetic biology and chemistry to enable researchers to search for bio-derived polymers through knowledge retrieval and ML-driven monomer prediction. The BioPACIFIC MIP MAPS tool gathers information about chemical compounds in the natural product space and evaluate them for their potential as polymer building blocks. This tool solicits knowledge from a wide range of domain experts to gain insights about what properties make for a good monomer. In this app, users can evaluate molecules and contribute to the development of a comprehensive database that serves as a "map" for researchers to identify targeted bio-derived polymers efficiently.
