Registration now open: 4th SIMPLAIX Workshop on “Machine Learning for Multiscale Molecular Modeling”

17. March 2026

The 4th SIMPLAIX Workshop on “Machine Learning for Multiscale Molecular Modeling” will take place in the Studio Villa Bosch in Heidelberg on 6-8 May 2026. The registration is now open: https://simplaix-workshop2026.h-its.org/registration/

We have again a great line-up of confirmed invited speakers. Please register fast to participate and to submit abstracts for contributed talks or posters by 5 April 2026. We have limits on the number of participants due to room size, so please pass the information on to your colleagues and ask them to register promptly.

We look forward to seeing you at the 4th SIMPLAIX Workshop on “Machine Learning for Multiscale Molecular Modeling.”  The Organizing Committee: Rebecca Wade (HITS), Alice Allen (MPIP), Marcus Elstner (KIT), Pascal Friederich (KIT), Jan Stuehmer (HITS), Frederic Teich (KIT) and Maike Vogelbacher (KIT).

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 in Mainz (MPIP) as new associate partner, focused on bridging scales from 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 jointly organized by SIMPLAIX and the RTG 2450. The aim of the workshop is to bring together scientists working in the field to share their research and discuss current challenges.

About HITS

HITS, the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies, was established in 2010 by physicist and SAP co-founder Klaus Tschira (1940-2015) and the Klaus Tschira Foundation as a private, non-profit research institute. HITS conducts basic research in the natural, mathematical, and computer sciences. Major research directions include complex simulations across scales, making sense of data, and enabling science via computational research. Application areas range from molecular biology to astrophysics. An essential characteristic of the Institute is interdisciplinarity, implemented in numerous cross-group and cross-disciplinary projects. The base funding of HITS is provided by the Klaus Tschira Foundation.
