Summer School: From Supramolecular Chemistry to Structural Biology by Multiscale Modelling Methods
Computer simulations have become a valuable tool for expanding our knowledge in many areas. Steadily increasing performance of supercomputers or even desktop computers allows us to simulate bigger systems or achieve higher accuracy employing routine simulations. However, proper predictions can only be obtained if correct models and theoretical approaches are employed. Thus, this course aims to provide essential foundations for performing computer simulations and how to avoid typical errors coming from misunderstanding employed approximations. The lectures will span the vast range of molecular modeling methods addressing problems from supramolecular chemistry to structural biology. The course will be composed of theoretical lectures complemented by practical sessions exercising typical simulation techniques in each discipline. This course is particularly suited for bachelor and masters students who are interested in continuing their studies into a PhD and a career in research.

BeeGFS in Practice — Parallel File Systems for HPC, AI and Data-Intensive Workloads 6 Feb - This webinar introduces BeeGFS, a leading parallel file system designed to support demanding HPC, AI, and data-intensive workloads. Experts from ThinkParQ will explain how parallel file systems work, how BeeGFS is architected, and how it is used in practice across academic, research, and industrial environments.
When a production line knows what will happen in 10 minutes 5 Feb - Every disruption on a production line creates stress. Machines stop, people wait, production slows down, and decisions must be made under pressure. In the food industry—especially in the production of filled pasta products, where the process follows a strictly sequential set of technological steps—one unexpected issue at the end of the line can bring the entire production flow to a halt. But what if the production line could warn in advance that a problem will occur in a few minutes? Or help decide, already during a shift, whether it still makes sense to plan packaging later the same day? These were exactly the questions that stood at the beginning of a research collaboration that brought together industrial data, artificial intelligence, and supercomputing power.
Who Owns AI Inside an Organisation? — Operational Responsibility 5 Feb - This webinar focuses on how organisations can define clear operational responsibility and ownership of AI systems in a proportionate and workable way. Drawing on hands-on experience in data protection, AI governance, and compliance, Petra Fernandes will explore governance approaches that work in practice for both SMEs and larger organisations. The session will highlight internal processes that help organisations stay in control of their AI systems over time, without creating unnecessary administrative burden.
