Europe/Rome 2021-09-13 08:00:00 2021-09-17 22:00:00 ICTP-SISSA-CECAM Workshop on Molecular Dynamics and its Applications to Biological Systems | (smr 3627) An ICTP-SISSA-CECAM Virtual Meeting There continues to be a growing community of scientists in both the developed and developing world, interested in and working on applications of molecular dynamics techniques to understand biological systems. This is highly relevant for problems in health and medicine.   This virtual gathering is aimed at bringing together both current students and alumni of SISSA and ICTP working in the broad area of atomistic simulations as applied to biological systems. This event will include introductory lectures to various aspects of biomolecular simulations, research talks by alumni working both in academia and industry and highlights of the research at SISSA and ICTP delivered by young researchers. This virtual activity is structured to enhance informal social interactions which will take place through the gather.town platform. Registration: There is no registration fee.

Europe/Rome 2021-11-22 07:00:00 2021-11-25 21:00:00 Light-matter Interactions from scratch: Theory and Experiments at the Border with Biology | (smr 3637) This virtual Workshop will bring together young researchers from all over the world and established scientists working on the interaction of light with biological matter. A variety of perspectives will provide interdisciplinary contents of both introductory and advanced nature. Multidisciplinarity, theory and experiments, as well as different backgrounds are crucial to understanding the diversity of phenomena and the fundamental processes that govern the complex interaction of light with living matter. This online format is an adaptation of the ICTP school and workshop originally planned in IISER, Trivandrum, India, to promote scientific development and exchanges in the whole area. The programme will include: • oral invited presentations by high-profile senior scientists, covering introductory aspects and most recent research developments; • young researchers’ contributed talks; • poster presentations through virtual poster sessions. Topics: • advanced spectroscopy and imaging to probe bio-interfaces; • dynamical processes: electron and energy transfers, quantum biology; • excited states, photophysics and photochemistry in biological matter. Preliminary list of speakers: Ellen Backus, University of Wien Ross McKenzie, University of Queensland Henrik Ottosson, Uppsala University Igor Schapiro, Hebrew University of Jerusalem Massimo Trotta, CNR at Bari, Italy Julia Weinstein, University of Sheffield Further details and online application will be made available in late July/early August.   Online - ICTP pio@ictp.it 22 Nov 2021 - 25 Nov 2021
