SUMMARY:CCPBioSim Conference: Frontiers in Biomolecular Simulations
DESCRIPTION:This year’s CCPBioSim annual conference has the theme of exploring the cutting edge of biomolecular simulations and associated methods\, and their real-world impacts. Biomolecular modelling has an ever increasing role in the creation of new therapies\, including antibodies and peptides. Simulation is also widely used to help interpret experimental data and features in many structural biology pipelines. \nMachine learning and artificial intelligence are having an ever-increasing impact\, analysing simulation data\, improving the accuracy of intermolecular potentials\, and designing novel biomolecules\, often with the aid of physics-based approaches. This conference will showcase the latest advances in these broad areas\, and how they are impacting industry and academia. \nWe invite abstracts for posters and talks in the area of cutting-edge biomolecular simulation and modelling. Topics of interest include: \n\nNew methods: What new approaches have enabled faster or more accurate or larger-scale simulations of biomolecular systems?\nPushing the envelope: Where have larger or longer simulations delivered new biological insights?\nArtificial intelligence: How is the combination of machine learning and artificial intelligence with biomolecular simulation advancing our knowledge of biological systems?\nExperimental interpretation and design: How can we best combine biomolecular simulation and experiment to deliver new biological understanding?\n\nWe look forward to seeing you all in Southampton! \nConfirmed Speakers\nMichael Shirts – University of Colorado Boulder\nMax Bonomi – Institut Pasteur\nHannah Bruce Macdonald – CHARM Therapeutics\nTomek Wlodarski – Institute of Biochemistry and Biophysics\, Warsaw\nSyma Khalid – University of Oxford\nKush Coshic – Max Planck Institute \nProgramme\nTBC \nRegistration\nRegistration is now open for CCPBiosim 2025! \nEarly Bird Registration Deadline: 19/05/25\nFinal Registration Deadline: 23/06/25 \nStudent Prices (Early Bird/Late): £120/£140\nNon-Student Prices (Early Bird/Late): £140/£160 \nRegistration includes talks\, poster sessions\, lunch and coffee breaks on all three days and a conference dinner taking place on the evening of the 15th. \nTo register please follow this link to the University of Sheffield’s online store: link \nPlease indicate clearly any accessibility and allergen needs at the time of registration or via email (ccpbiosim2025@soton.ac.uk). \nVenue\nThe conference will be taking place on Highfield Campus at The University of Southampton – talks will be held in the Building 2A lecture theatre / Posters\, lunch\, snacks\, drinks\, dinner to be hosted in the ‘Garden Court’ \nContributed Oral or Poster Presentations\nDeadlines for Abstract Submission: \nContributed Oral: 02/06/25\nPoster: 23/06/25 \nPlease complete this template and upload in the form  – https://ccpbiosim.ac.uk/soton2025 \nOrganising Committee\nProf. Jonathan Essex\, Southampton University\nDr. William Poole\, Southampton University\nProf. Aditi Borkar\, Nottingham University\nDr. Agnieszka Bronowska\, Newcastle University\nDr. Daniel Cole\, Newcastle University\nProf. Warispreet Singh\, Northumbria University\nDr. Sofia Oliveira\, Bristol University\nDr. James Gebbie-Rayet\, Daresbury Laboratory @ STFC\nDr. Shivani Harshe\, Sheffield University \nContact\nccpbiosim2025@soton.ac.uk \n\nAbout CCPBioSim\nCCPBioSim is an inclusive wide-ranging project\, bringing together chemists\, physicists and chemical engineers as well as researchers from all branches of ‘molecule-oriented’ biochemistry and biology. Our aim is to involve experimentalists and computational specialists\, sharing the belief that the best science can be done when theory and experiment are closely integrated. CCPBioSim develops and provides training and tools to lower the barrier to non-experts becoming proficient and productive users of biomolecular simulation techniques. We also work to develop and apply advanced methods.
