This fully virtual workshop will focus on parallel programming models and algorithms used in or beneficial to our community, as well as recent success stories in codes and methods development for advanced simulations in our field. One key objective of the workshop is to improve and develop the skill-sets of the next-generation of computational chemistry […]
In 2017, the MolSSI held an Interoperability Workshop during which we asked the community to clarify current needs for interoperability among computational molecular sciences (CMS) codes. We have spent the past four years diligently working towards general solutions to these complex problems, and are excited to announce that several MolSSI interoperability projects are ready for […]
Marc Riera Riambau, PhD, one of our 2018/2019 Seed and Investment Fellows, earned his PhD in computational chemistry at UC San Diego under the direction of Prof. Francesco Paesani. He is currently working as a postdoc at UCSD toward the development of a molecular dynamics package that will enable simulations using extremely accurate potential energy surfaces. […]
Dr. Caitlin C. Bannan, one of our former MolSSI Software Seed and Investment Fellows, is currently a Scientific Developer at OpenEye Scientific Software in New Mexico. She earned her PhD at UC Irvine with Prof. David Mobley. Her experience focuses on improving computational methods for small molecule drug design with expertise in alchemical free energy calculations, machine learning […]
Bradley Dice, one of our current MolSSI Software Investment Fellows, is now completing his PhD in Physics and Scientific Computing at the University of Michigan with Prof. Sharon C. Glotzer, who is a former member of our Sciences and Software Advisory Board (SSAB)! Bradley is working with Dr. Doaa Altarawy on developing powerful parallel analysis tools […]
Dr. João Rodrigues, one of our former MolSSI Software Seed Fellows, is now a Senior Scientist at Schrodinger. While a 2020 MolSSI Seed Fellow, João worked with MolSSI Software Scientist Dr. Levi Naden on developing an open-source library to characterize the chemistry and energetics of protein interfaces. How did you first become interested in molecular […]
Prof. Alon Grinberg Dana, one of our former MolSSI Software Seed Fellows, is now heading his own research group at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology– focusing on a central problem in chemical engineering: quantitatively predicting the reactivity of various chemical systems. Alon and colleagues are developing simulation technologies to solve practical problems at the […]
Heta A. Gandhi, one of our current MolSSI Software Investment Fellows, is currently completing her PhD at the University of Rochester under the direction of Prof. Andrew White. She is working with Dr. Jessica Nash on extending machine learning software to coarse-grained molecular dynamics. How did you first become interested in molecular science? Working with […]
Tucker Burgin, one of our current MolSSI Software Investment Fellows (and former Seed Fellow) is currently completing his PhD at the University of Michigan under the direction of Prof. Heather B. Mayes. He is working with Dr. Sam Ellis on building software tools for understanding and evolving enzymes in silico guided by unbiased, all-atom simulations […]
CANCELLED until further notice: The Molecular Sciences Software Institute is hosting two events at the 2020 Biennial Conference on Chemical Education (BCCE). BCCE is a national meeting sponsored by the Division of Chemical Education of the American Chemical Society (ACS). The conference is designed for those who teach chemistry at all levels, and is taking place July 18-23, […]
