Applications for attendence of the school is closed
MolSim-2024 is 2-week school that offers a program focusing on basic and advanced molecular simulation methods. It targets PhD candidates and postdoctoral researchers who want to understand and apply these methods to study topics in physics, chemistry or biology. The program has an integrated and balanced structure of lectures and hands-on exercises. It offers a recap of the basic theory relevant for molecular simulation, followed by a thorough covering of basic and advanced simulation techniques. The use of quantum computing methods in molecular simulation will be a special focus area of the 2024 edition of the school. All techniques will be accompanied by illustrative examples of present day research.
