HITS organizes scientific events throughout the year. Each month, HITS hosts its colloquium series. If you like to receive an invitation, please use this registration form: https://www.h-its.org/registration/
Our research groups offer scientific workshops. Additionally, HITS offers talks and events for the general public in Heidelberg and surroundings.
By Antonis Rokas, Department of Biological Sciences, Vanderbilt University, USA The use of genome-scale amounts of data and sophisticated statistical phylogenetic approaches have greatly aided the reconstruction of a broad sketch of the tree of life and resolved many of its branches. However, incongruence—the inference of conflicting evolutionary histories stemming from a multitude of analytical […]
Come and join us for our Open Day at HITS on Saturday, 9 July, from 11am-5pm After four years the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies will open its doors to the public again. Under the overall theme of “Digital Worlds 20.22” the program includes science talks in English and German, presentations and hands-on stations, all […]
By Eike Hermann Müller, Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Bath, UK Including electrostatics in (kinetic) Monte Carlo simulations of interacting particles is challenging due to the long-range nature of the Coulomb potential. As a result, the computational complexity grows rapidly with N, the number of particles in the system. While the Fast Multipole Method […]
During this 3-day course, attendees will learn basic techniques for modeling of biochemical networks including data access and storage due to the FAIR principles. The first day introduces principles of stoichiometric and constraint-based modeling coupled with hands on exercises using CellNetAnalyzer. The second day continues with kinetic modeling techniques which will be illustrated and exercised […]

By Sarbani Basu, Department of Astronomy, Yale University, USA We normally rely on physics to interpret and understand astrophysical processes. However, with precise seismic data from the Sun and other stars, we can use astrophysics to inform us about the physical properties of stellar matter, and in some cases inform us even about fundamental physics. […]
The purpose of the FAIRDOM user meetings is to establish an active FAIRDOM user community to allow networking between various FAIRDOM-SEEK users and learn from each other’s experiences. Within the two-hours event invited users will showcase the use of FAIRDOMHub and other FAIRDOM-SEEK instances for their research projects. After the presentations we’ll have plenty of […]
By David Dao, GainForest/PhD candidate ETH Zurich, Switzerland Nature has been deteriorating at rates unparalleled in human history and the implications are global. Climate change and biodiversity loss are two bullets in the same gun. Perils we face in parallel, both driven by deforestation and land use change. If global tropical deforestation were a country, […]
By Michele Ceriotti, EPFL STI SMX-GE, Lausanne, Switzerland When modeling materials and molecules at the atomic scale, achieving a realistic level of complexity and making quantitative predictions are usually conflicting goals. Data-driven techniques have made great strides towards enabling simulations of materials in realistic conditions with uncompromising accuracy. In this talk I will summarize the […]
