MATLAB provides a robust environment for molecular discovery and computational chemistry. You can import, visualize, and analyze chemical structures and data sets with advanced cheminformatics, artificial intelligence (AI), and quantum chemistry tools. Python® interoperability lets you integrate RDKit, Psi4, VASP, LAMMPS, and other libraries for complete workflows in drug design, property prediction, molecular simulations, and electronic structure analysis.
With MATLAB and Simulink, you can:
- Import, visualize, and partition large molecular data sets (SDF, SMILES, CSV, and more)
- Compute molecular fingerprints and perform similarity analysis with workflows using MATLAB and RDKit workflows
- Leverage GPU acceleration for large-scale clustering and similarity calculations
- Integrate quantum chemistry calculations (DFT, molecular dynamics, and electronic properties) using third-party tools
- Automate workflows and combine cheminformatics, AI, and computational chemistry for research
- Share reproducible scripts and interactive apps for collaboration and education
