Molecular Dynamics Training

University of Strathclyde, John Anderson Building, room J.A. 7.32

This five day course will cover the basic knowledge and skills required to run molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using the NAMD package. Two hands-on session will help the participants to run their own simulations. If you wish to attend but you have other commitments we can discuss the dates of next Sessions at first Session.

The training will cover:

Basic Principles in MD theory                                                  Hands-on session 1

Monday, 29th of October, 1.30pm – 4.30pm.                                                          Monday, 5th of November, 1.30pm – 4.30pm.

The training delivered by Dr Karina Kubiak – Ossowska from ARCHIE-WeSt supporting team is available to staff and postgraduate students from ARCHIE-WeSt partner institutions. The number of attendees is limited, and the priority will be given to users of ARCHIE-WeSt. Places for users of other facilities will be subject to availability. The students who will complete the training (attendance on all 5 sessions and the report describing their own simulations) will get the certificate of the attendance worth 5 credits.
