  • Science, Fiction: Uncovering Research Misconduct Without Eroding Trust

    Mathematikon Heidelberg University Im Neuenheimer Feld 205, Heidelberg, Germany

    From accusations of plagiarism against Harvard's former president to the case of Stanford's Marc Tessier-Lavigne and over to the horrific case of Paolo Macchiarini's plastic windpipes -- scientific misconduct has exploded into the public eye in recent years. How can scientists and journalists cover such cases without undermining trust in the scientific process and our […]

  • HITS-SIMPLAIX Joint Colloquium Massimiliano Bonomi: Structural and Dynamic Biology with Integrative Approaches

    Studio Villa Bosch Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 33, Heidelberg, Germany

    By Massimiliano Bonomi, Institut Pasteur, Paris, France Understanding the molecular mechanisms by which biological systems carry out their functions is often essential for the rational targeting of associated diseases. In many cases, determining the three- dimensional (3D) structure of these systems provides valuable insights. However, it is often the interplay between structural and dynamical properties […]

  • 16th SIMPLAIX internal project meeting

    Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 35, Heidelberg, Germany

    The 16th SIMPLAIX internal project meeting will take place at the HITS main building, Alan Turing room.

  • HITS Colloquium Raphael Hirschi: Predicting the Impact of Massive Stars in the Universe and how to Store Renewable Energy From the Sun on Earth

    Studio Villa Bosch Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 33, Heidelberg, Germany

      By Raphael Hirschi, Klaus Tschira Guest Professor Astrophysics Research Centre, School of Chemical and Physical Sciences, Keele University, UK   In this colloquium, I will start by briefly reviewing the importance of stars in the Universe. I will then discuss how we can re-create stars on computers using a range of simulations using a […]

  • The Future of NLP

  • HITS-SIMPLAIX Joint Colloquium Rommie Amaro: Multiscale Computational Microscopy for In Situ Molecular Dynamics

    Studio Villa Bosch Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 33, Heidelberg, Germany

      By Rommie Amaro, Endowed Chair, Distinguished Professorship in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, Department of Molecular Biology, UC San Diego, USA   Advances in multiscale computational microscopy are transforming our ability to visualize and understand biomolecular systems in their native contexts. In this talk, I will highlight recent progress in in situ molecular dynamics (MD), where […]
