Announcements of conferences, workshops, schools…
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.

Dear Colleagues and young researchers,
The controlled growth of thin films based on metastable materials by chemistry-driven processes is of high technological importance for topics like semiconductor devices or optical coatings. Computational modelling of this inherently multiscale process is crucial for an atomistic understanding and enables a decoupling and separate optimization of the growth-determining factors of non-equilibrium materials. This workshop will result in a joint effort by experts from different modelling communities covering the necessary length and time scales.
The workshop will take place in a beautiful castle one train-hour north of Frankfurt in an environment fostering intense discussions.
The main idea of the workshop is to bring together experts which work on the simulation of growth phenomena at the different scales and which due to the different employed methodology hitherto meet usually in separate conference and workshop formats. The central theme will be to introduce the state-of-the-art and current challenges in the individual fields, and to discuss ideas of bridging between them.
The workshop will be restricted to 40-50 participants for intense and informal discussions. Invited experts will cover the various key modelling areas, while a few eminent experimental colleagues present keynotes overviewing contemporary materials and processes, and defining the targets for the modelling.
The speaker list currently comprises:
Kerstin Volz (U Marburg, Germany)
Simon Elliott (Tyndall National Institute, Ireland)
Alexey Timoshkin (U St. Petersburg, Russia)
Stacey Bent (Stanford University, USA)
Peter Kratzer (U Duisburg-Essen, Germany)
Francesco Montalenti (U Milano, Italy)
Christian Carbogno (FHI Berlin, Germany)
Kristen Fichthorn (Penn State U, USA)
Chris Van de Walle (UC Santa Barbara, USA)
Talat Rahman (U Central Florida, USA)
Wolfram Miller (IKZ Berlin, Germany)
Ingo Steinbach (U Bochum, Germany)
Rochus Schmid (U Bochum, Germany)
Henrik Pedersen (U Linköping, Sweden)
Erwin Kessels (TU Eindhoven, Netherlands)
The speaker list including a continuously updated list of presentation titles is available at

Young researchers will have the opportunity to present their own research projects during a poster session.
Selected submissions will be upgraded to contributed talks.
