Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

We are pleased to announce the CECAM School on Multiscale Molecular Dynamics with MiMiC that will take place at the CECAM Headquarters, EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland, from July 18th to 22nd, 2022.
The school focuses on the modeling of large and complex (bio)chemical systems, ranging from molecules in solution to membrane-embedded proteins. The large size of such systems and the long time scale of chemically relevant phenomena necessitates the use of a combination of complementary techniques allowing to span multiple temporal and spatial scales. The school is aimed at young and more experienced researchers who will be taught advanced simulation techniques including multiscale and rare event sampling methods. The school covers methods for coupling different spatial resolutions using hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) models and multiple time scales through multiple time step (MTS) algorithms as well as sampling methods for reconstructing free energy surfaces, identifying reaction paths, and computing process/reaction rates. The theoretical lectures will be complemented by practical sessions where the multiscale modeling framework MiMiC will be used (https://mimic-project.org/). This also includes training in the efficient use of HPC resources, e.g., how to setup a simulation to optimize efficiency.

There are a limited number of onsite places. Remote participation for the lectures will be possible but not for the exercises.
The school is organized by Jógvan Magnus Haugaard Olsen (DTU), Simone Meloni (University of Ferrara), and Ursula Röthlisberger (EPFL).
