Description
SIMPLAIX is a cooperation between the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (HITS), the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and Heidelberg University, with the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPIP) as an additional partner for the second phase, 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 Fourth SIMPLAIX Workshop on “Machine Learning for Multiscale Molecular Modeling” is again jointly organized by SIMPLAIX and the RTG 2450.
The first three SIMPLAIX workshops took place in May 2023, 2024 and 2025 (https://simplaix-workshop2023.h-its.org, https://simplaix-workshop2024.h-its.org/ and https://simplaix-workshop2025.h-its.org/). Similarly, the aim of this fourth workshop is to bring together scientists working in this vibrant field to share their research and discuss current challenges in an informal atmosphere.
Registration for this event is now open. Registration deadline is 10 April 2026.
