Matlantis will be speaking at MRM2025 @ Pacifico Yokohama

Matlantis will be giving a lunch session and an oral presentation at MRM2025 (Materials Research Meeting 2025), which will be held at Pacifico Yokohama North from Monday, December 8th to Saturday, December 13th, 2025. Members of Preferred Networks, who develop Matlantis' core technology, will also be speaking on the topic of machine learning potential. We hope you will join us if your schedule allows.

● Lunch session

A Short History, A Radical Shift: How Matlantis Transforms Materials R&D

overview:
This luncheon seminar presents the latest advances in Matlantis™—a materials-simulation platform—and its core technology, PFP, a proprietary universal machine-learning interatomic potential (uMLIP). PFP is widely regarded as a pioneering uMLIP that can predict a broad spectrum of materials properties with a single potential. In the four years since its release, the uMLIP concept has matured into a distinct research area. Amid this rapid evolution, our focus remains on developing uMLIPs that are truly useful for R&D, striking a practical balance between accuracy and computational efficiency.
The first part of the talk will outline our company and technical foundations, the philosophy and development of PFP, shifts in the external landscape, and the expanding ecosystem built around PFP. The second part will cover new integrations with external software and recent application case studies, including simulations at electrochemical interfaces and performance evaluations of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)—materials recognized in the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

What is MRM2025?

The Materials Research Meeting (MRM) is an international conference established as a forum for interdisciplinary discussion in the field of materials science. The first (2019, Yokohama), second (2021, Yokohama/Hybrid), and third (2023, Kyoto) conferences each attracted over 1,600 to 2,000 participants, and the conference has developed into a forum for global research exchange.

The fourth MRM2025 will be held at Pacifico Yokohama North in December 2025.
The purpose of this forum is to discuss the progress and applications of cutting-edge materials science in addressing global environmental issues such as climate change and realizing a sustainable society.
This will be a forum where researchers from a wide range of fields, including materials and process development, resource recycling, and biodiversity conservation, will come together to aim for new collaborations and the creation of a research foundation for next-generation materials research.
