The Uppsala-Stockholm Biomolecular Simulation Symposium is a one-day meeting for research groups focusing on computer simulations of biomolecular systems in the Stockholm/Uppsala area. A plenary lecture will be given by Peter Kasson, who recently joined Uppsala university from the University of Virginia, as well as presentations from PhD students and postdocs. A poster session will be organized during coffee breaks and lunch.
Registration to this event has closed! Free bus shuttle Bus transportation from/to SciLifeLab in Solna will be arranged. There are still seats available for the bus even though the registration has closed. To sign up for a seat, e-mail to erika.erkstam@scilifelab.uu.se.
Questions? If you want to participate or have any inquiries regarding the event or your registration, please contact erika.erkstam@scilifelab.uu.se. |
