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 science, education, training, and coding in the era of AI. Possible topics include, but are not limited to, the impact of AI on scientific research, computation and simulation, the teaching and training of science and computational methods, and software development and coding. Multidisciplinary proposals exploring these challenges across different areas of science and education are particularly welcome.

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 12, 2027. Results of the call will be communicated in April 2027.
