NISPO
Open-source IUPAC name generation tool
An open-source tool for naming molecules, built by a verifier-guided coding agent. NISPO achieved 98.1% round-trip accuracy across 103 million molecules.

Read paperMolecular Representations for Large Language Models
An explicit molecular graph format for language models. Across 224,055 model responses, MolJSON substantially outperformed common formats on molecular translation, graph reasoning, and generation tasks.
Read paperAssessing the Chemical Intelligence of Large Language Models
The first systematic assessment of reasoning models in chemistry. Across 816 questions, ChemIQ showed that LLMs had gained the ability to perform chemical reasoning, including elucidating molecular structures from NMR data.

02 / About
I combine expertise in chemistry and AI to develop systems for fully autonomous chemical research.
I’m a DPhil student in the Oxford Protein Informatics Group, based in the Department of Statistics and supervised by Professor Fergus Imrie and Professor Charlotte M. Deane.
My research develops agents that reason about molecular structures, apply chemical theory, and interpret experimental evidence. Working with experimental collaborators in Oxford’s Department of Chemistry, I test these systems on real research problems.
