Mception

Mception is a chemistry-focused deep learning platform exploring how artificial intelligence can help computers perceive and understand molecules. Founded by Dr Martin Lear in the School of Chemistry at the University of Lincoln, the initiative presents machine learning as a way to support chemistry research and develop computer-based intelligence for working with molecular information. Its tools are being developed by chemists for chemists, with areas of focus that include catalysis, spectroscopy and synthesis.

Mception describes its goal as enabling computers to carry out time-consuming research investigations, potentially helping researchers accelerate their work. The site frames this vision as a progression from traditional total synthesis toward machine learning applied to molecules, and introduces the project through its chemistry AI tools and research themes. It also identifies Martin Lear with the University of Edinburgh in its contact information.

The website notes that it is for illustrative purposes, so its material presents the platform’s direction and developing tools rather than establishing a complete catalogue of available products or services
