Digital techniques could make scientific discovery up to a thousand times faster. Hear from some of the world's leading experts about how they use the power of digital in their work.

Recent advances in AI, robotics, data analysis, modelling and simulation have allowed scientists to augment their research to advance discovery more quickly, with many of these techniques being exploited to accelerate research into coronavirus treatments, reducing the time it takes to do some tasks in labs from weeks or months to just hours and identifying patterns and possibilities that humans alone would not see.

The Royal Society of Chemistry's Digital Futures report looks at how the new wave of technologies can turbocharge research speeds to respond to future global challenges and crises – with chemists, biologists, data scientists, public health and environment experts, clinicians, regulators, industry, governments, funders, and philanthropists all part of the solution.

In this video, hear from:
Professor Varinder Aggarwal, University of Bristol
Professor Andy Cooper, University of Liverpool
Professor Lee Cronin, University of Glasgow
Professor Charlotte Deane, University of Oxford
Dr Elizabeth Rowsell, Johnson Matthey
