BioExcel-2
Event/Course Description
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.
Audience and Prerequisites
The BioExcel school is intended for primarily PhD and post-doctoral researchers using or planning to use biomolecular modeling and simulation in their everyday research. Familiarity with Linux and basic knowledge of molecular modelling software is a requirement.
