The paper introduces GeomCLIP, a framework for pretraining molecular representations by combining geometric structures and biomedical texts. The goal is to enhance multi-modal representation learning for drug and material discovery. The authors collect a dataset of 200K pairs of geometric structures and biomedical texts, dubbed PubChem3D, and propose two pre-training tasks: multimodal representation alignment and unimodal denoising. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of GeomCLIP in molecular property prediction, zero-shot text-molecule retrieval, and 3D molecule captioning.

The paper helps us learn more about molecules and how to understand them better. The authors combine information from three-dimensional geometric structures with written descriptions of molecules to create a new way to represent molecules. This can help us discover new drugs and materials. They test their method on different tasks, like predicting molecular properties or finding texts that describe certain molecules. It works well!
