Date: 12 - 17 June 2022

The summer school will include lectures and hands-on sessions on the following topics:

  • Molecular dynamics simulations
  • Biomolecular docking
  • Free energy calculations
  • Advanced sampling methods (Metadynamics)
  • BioExcel Building Blocks (BioBB)
  • Quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM)
  • Machine learning

During the hands-on computer practicals you will make use of the BioExcel flagship software and tools: e.g. GROMACS, HADDOCK, PMX, BioBB, and CP2K. The trainers, developers and/or experts in the use of the software, will provide guidance and support.

You can find more informatioan about the course on the BioExcel website: https://bioexcel.eu/events/bioexcel-summer-school-on-biomolecular-simulations-2022/
