Christopher D. Taylor is Director of Applied Sciences at Promethium (QC Ware Corp.), bringing over 25 years of expertise in density functional theory (DFT). He works with drug discovery teams to bridge AI and quantum chemistry, guiding the deployment of DFT-based rational drug design and descriptor-driven frameworks for drug discovery. Throughout his career, Christopher has used DFT to solve problems once considered unsolvable, and he now highlights how high-quality quantum mechanical data, when used to train AI models, delivers significant gains in accuracy and insight. By translating complex scientific challenges into scalable workflows, he helps accelerate both small molecule and macromolecule design with quantum-level precision.
