The 15th SIMPLAIX internal project meeting will take place at KIT.
By Massimiliano Bonomi, Institut Pasteur, Paris, France Understanding the molecular mechanisms by which biological systems carry out their functions is often essential for the rational targeting of associated diseases. In many cases, determining the three- dimensional (3D) structure of these systems provides valuable insights. However, it is often the interplay between structural and dynamical properties […]
The 16th SIMPLAIX internal project meeting will take place at the HITS main building, Alan Turing room.
By Raphael Hirschi, Klaus Tschira Guest Professor Astrophysics Research Centre, School of Chemical and Physical Sciences, Keele University, UK In this colloquium, I will start by briefly reviewing the importance of stars in the Universe. I will then discuss how we can re-create stars on computers using a range of simulations using a […]
