Workshop - Urbana, IL, United States

Computational biology in the petascale era offers a unique opportunity to connect atomic-level descriptions of biological systems such as viruses and cellular organelles. The course will introduce participants to the many challenges that arise in the course of conducting molecular dynamics simulations on very large biomolecular complexes. Relevant physical concepts, mathematical techniques, and computational methods will be introduced, including approaches for preparing, simulating, and analyzing large systems on state-of-the-art petascale supercomputing hardware, data management practices, and remote visualization, using the NAMD and VMD software. The workshop will be presented by members of the Theoretical and Computational Biophysics Group from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
