June 21-26, 2015 – Caltech, Pasadena, California
Application Deadline - May 13, 2015.

The 2015 Summer Training Workshop in Bimolecular Simulations is an NSF-funded workshop that provides a hands-on opportunity for undergraduate students and first-year graduate students to learn both basic scientific computing practices and a wide variety of molecular dynamics (MD) simulation techniques. The scientific computing topics covered this year will include command line automation, data analysis with Python, and version control.  The MD topics will span the basics of the entire simulation process from system setup to trajectory analysis, as well as more advanced topics including using polarizable force fields, parametrizing small molecules, and running simulations on GPUs.  Throughout the workshop students will make use of XSEDE computing resources and learn best practices for operating in supercomputing environments. To encourage undergraduate participation this workshop has no registration fees, free lodging, and attendees’ travel costs will be partially reimbursed.  For information, including how to apply, please visit https://sites.google.com/site/biomolsimstw.
