This award supports a proposed workshop to bring together visionaries from Materials Science synthesis and characterization fields to explore scientific opportunities offered by the emergence of the 5th paradigm of science: AI and data enabled discovery with automation and autonomation of experiments. The context is materials discovery within the framework of the current Materials Genome Initiative strategic plan, to identify the technological, economic, and sociological challenges that will have to be overcome, and propose a path forward that will allow the US to excel and lead in this emerging area. Products of the workshop will be archives of the workshop materials, a consensus report, and a public facing journal article that summarizes the motivation and findings coming from the meeting. The focus of this meeting will be limited to materials described as having long-range order, but more specifically materials exemplified by bulk crystals, epitaxial films, 2-dimensional materials, Quantum Materials, and Van der Waals materials, but not soft materials or structural materials that will be covered in two other related workshops. The workshop will explore concrete steps needed to enable the development of 5th generation scientific research in materials discovery in the US community. The intellectual merit of the activity is to identify early scientific opportunities and map out what investments, organizations, bureaucracies, education, and training, that need to be put into place for the US materials community to take advantage of these emerging opportunities. It will result in reports and journal articles that lay out the current understanding of the community on opportunities and needs and a vision for how this could move forward with an emphasis on short-term actionable items. Accelerating the discovery and adoption of new materials provides potentially transformative benefits to all people. A broader impact of this proposed activity is to build foundations for greatly accelerated materials discovery capabilities. 5th-Generation scientific research is an inherently multi-investigator, multi-expertise, multi-discipline convergent research activity. The workshop will also be to identify how to develop, train, and retain a diverse future workforce for operating in this teaming environment.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项支持举办一个拟议的研讨会，汇集材料科学合成和表征领域的远见者，探索第五种科学范式的出现所提供的科学机会：人工智能和数据通过实验的自动化和自动化实现发现。背景是在当前材料基因组计划战略计划框架内进行材料发现，以确定必须克服的技术、经济和社会学挑战，并提出一条前进道路，使美国能够在这一领域脱颖而出并处于领先地位。新兴领域。研讨会的产品将是研讨会材料的档案、共识报告以及总结会议动机和发现的面向公众的期刊文章。本次会议的重点将仅限于描述为具有长程有序的材料，但更具体地说是块状晶体、外延薄膜、二维材料、量子材料和范德华材料等示例的材料，但不包括软材料或结构材料其他两个相关研讨会将涵盖的材料。该研讨会将探讨在美国社区发展第五代材料发现科学研究所需的具体步骤。这项活动的智力价值在于识别早期的科学机会，并规划出美国材料界需要进行哪些投资、组织、官僚机构、教育和培训，以利用这些新兴机会。它将产生报告和期刊文章，阐述社区当前对机会和需求的理解，以及如何推进这一目标的愿景，重点是短期可采取行动的项目。加速新材料的发现和采用可为所有人带来潜在的变革性好处。这项拟议活动的更广泛影响是为大大加速材料发现能力奠定基础。第五代科学研究本质上是一种多研究者、多专业知识、多学科融合的研究活动。该研讨会还将确定如何培养、培训和留住未来在这种团队环境中运作的多元化劳动力。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查进行评估，被认为值得支持标准。
