Workshop on Computer Modeling and Simulation
of Biomolecular Systems

Sep.22 (Mon.), 2014, RIKEN

Aim

Proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrate are major components of biological systems. To explore molecular dynamics of those complexes such as protein-membrane and cytoplasmic systems by computer simulations, realistic representation of molecules, reliable force-field parameters, and advanced techniques for whole structure modeling are required. The aim of this workshop is to offer an opportunity to exchange and share ideas from recent studies focusing on “Realistic modeling and simulations of biomolecular systems”.
