3rd SIMPLAIX Workshop on Machine Learning for Multiscale Molecular Modeling

Description

SIMPLAIX is a cooperation between the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (HITS), the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and Heidelberg University, focussed on bridging scales from (bio)molecules to molecular materials by multiscale simulation and machine learning (www.simplaix.org). RTG 2450 is a DFG-funded research graduate school at KIT on “Tailored Scale-Bridging Approaches to Computational Nanoscience” (https://www.compnano.kit.edu/index.php).

The Third SIMPLAIX Workshop on “Machine Learning for Multiscale Molecular Modeling” is jointly organized by SIMPLAIX and the RTG 2450.

The first two SIMPLAIX workshops took place in May 2023 and May 2024 (https://simplaix-workshop2023.h-its.org and https://simplaix-workshop2024.h-its.org/). Similarly, the aim of this third workshop is to bring together scientists working in this vibrant field to share their research and discuss current challenges in an informal atmosphere.
