This set of research projects explore how foundation models can be applied in a variety for domain applications in science and engineering, spanning agriculture, battery design, catalyst discovery, climate science, energy systems, health, Internet of Things (IoT), material science, and robotics. The breadth of methodologies explored include contextual understanding and representation, semantic parsing, interaction skills acquisition, dynamic adaptation and efficient retrieval. These efforts demonstrate how advanced AI can enable scientific discoveries to be realized through a range of applications that swiftly integrate foundation models with complementary technologies to drive innovation across many sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
