We would like to announce the joint Thomas Young Centre, CCP9 and ICL, Chemistry symposium:

Milestones in Molecular Simulations

Date: Friday 21 Jun 2019

Time: 09:00 - 16:30

Venue: Molecular Sciences Research Hub (MSRH), Lecture Theatre B10

Location: Imperial College London, White City Campus, 80 Wood Lane, W12 0BZ London, United Kingdom

 The meeting is a celebration of the seminal work on Professor Michele Parrinello, who will be our plenary speaker. We aim to form a platform for discussion, exchange of ideas and formation of scientific partnerships that will foster the general interest for computational methods for the simulation of materials and molecular systems, building on the methods developed by Professor Michele Parrinello. At the same time this symposium will formulate future research paths and bridge the existing Parrinello-trained community in the UK with a novel generation of scientists.

This workshop is supported by the Thomas Young Centre, CCP9 and the Department of Chemistry, Imperial College London.

The registration is now open. If you are interested in participating in this symposium, please register using the following link:
