Submit a CECAM-Lorentz proposal
The CECAM-Lorentz workshops are part of our collaboration with the Lorentz Center in Leiden, aiming at daring initiatives in modeling and simulation at different scales. The workshops are held since 2014, alternately at Lorentz Center in Leiden and at CECAM in Lausanne. Previous events can be found here.
The CECAM-Lorentz program funds every year a leading-edge workshop in computational simulation and modeling and its applications. We seek an innovative scientific program that takes us beyond our current boundaries in an open and interactive format with few lectures. Although all topics are welcome, in this year's call, we aim to specifically encourage proposals addressing the carbon footprint and environmental impact of computational science: between software and hardware. Possible topics include, but are not limited to, sustainable codes for atomistic and molecular simulations, data science, scientific image analysis, or sustainable ML/AI.
Organizing teams and participant lists that reflect an interdisciplinary spirit, as well as a clear motivation for the chosen interdisciplinary approach, are particularly encouraged. Diversity in gender, geographical provenance, career stage, and so forth, of organizers and participants is strongly advised and will be considered in evaluating the proposals.
Short-listed expressions of interest will be invited to present a full application by March 1, 2026. Results of the call will be communicated in April 2026.
