Advance your institution's chemistry-related research and scholarship with Reaxys.
AI is reshaping chemistry research. Is your institution ready?
Institutions worldwide are incorporating Reaxys into their chemistry programs. Explore how predictive retrosynthesis and intelligent search are being used in academic settings to support research and learning.
AI-powered learning and discovery in action
At Chung Shan Medical University (Taiwan), Professor Chih-Chien Chu redesigned his advanced organic synthesis course around Reaxys Predictive Retrosynthesis. Students explored molecule design, literature validation and retrosynthetic pathways using Reaxys’ AI-powered platform—turning theory into applied investigation.
80% of students reported higher engagement and motivation
Students gained new insight into cost-efficient, sustainable pathways
Reaxys acted as a “senior laboratory mentor,” guiding students toward novel, evidence-based synthesis decisions
This transformation reflects a global trend: AI is increasingly being integrated into academic chemistry to support sustainable, reproducible and forward-looking research.
AI can expand students' literature readings and enhance their learning experience in ways that make studying more engaging. This approach motivates a new generation of students to become familiar with the AI-assisted research of the future.Professor Chih-Chien Chu
