We are still accepting late contributions. Join us this summer in Prague #ISP2023

The ICP invites you to the 2023 ESPResSo summer school, taking place on Oct 9-13 2023 in Stuttgart. Attendance is free of charge. On-site participants are welcome to bring a poster and present it during the lightning talks. cecam.org/workshop-detai…

On Monday we enjoyed a pre-symposium workshop funded by EEA and Norway Grants where we discussed work in progress. In a dedicated session at the international symposium on polyelectrolytes isp2023, our team members presented previously published research to a broader audience.

I am proud of my PhD student Sebastian Pineda winning the best lecture award at International symposium on Polyelectrolytes, isp2023 Selected by votes of about 20 senior scientists participating at the meeting :-)

Thank you for participating at ISP 2023 in Prague, we hope you have enjoyed the symposium as much as we did!

Fundamental rights of scientists in Spain who worked with "scholarships" before 2011 have been violated by successive governments, which have not acted to restore their contributions to social security, in comparative grievance with current scientists and the rest of the workers!

New book chapter! Check out how ESPResSo enables soft matter simulations at different time- and length-scales with our latest contribution to Comprehensive Computational Chemistry doi.org/10.1016/B978-0…

Unlock the power of pyMBE 🧬: a sophisticated molecule builder tailored for ESPResSo! ☕️ by Pablo M Blanco, @beyer24a and team to model coarse-grained polymers and proteins with reactive sites for Monte Carlo simulations. # #pyMBE #ESPResSo doi.org/10.48550/arXiv…

Today, I had the opportunity to share our research at with colleagues at @NTNUNaturalSci during the Biophysics lunch seminar. Yesterday, students presented their projects at a minisymposium. Thanks EEA and Norway Grants for supporting our collaboration with Pablo M Blanco and Rita Dias

Check out our latest simulation/experimental work with Pablo M Blanco and Peter Košovan on complexation between short peptides and polymers: Charge Regulation Triggers Condensation of Short Oligopeptides to Polyelectrolytes [doi.org/10.1021/jacsau…].

Yesterday we enjoyed a fruitful workshop at @NTNUNaturalSci with external participants from 3 other countries. Thanks to EEA and Norway Grants collaborative project with Rita Dias and Pablo M Blanco Today, we continued with internal discussions on joint projects.

🟤 We are happy to announce the first release of pyMBE, an open-source #Python package designed to facilitate the design of custom coarse-grained models of polyelectrolytes, peptides and proteins in ESPResSo More info: ➡️ multixscale.eu/2024/07/18/pym… icp-stuttgart Pablo M Blanco

The explicit bonding reaction ensemble Monte Carlo method pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/articl… Thanks Pablo M Blanco Important step towards modeling reversible bonds in coarse-grained models of polymers. Looking forward to its applications for simulating reversible gelation and hydrogen bonding.
