Congrats Daniel Crusius Department of Biochemistry at Oxford University on his latest preprint: Are we fitting data or noise? Analysing the predictive power of commonly used datasets in drug-, materials-, and molecular-discovery. | ChemRxiv - go.shr.lc/4bx4SoB Collab with Flaviu Cipcigan/IBM Research!

Great talk from Tomek Wlodarski on Co-translational protein folding in the light of ribosome evolution, at the Simon’s Foundation meeting on challenges in large scale biomolecular simulations. The work has been supported by HECBioSim via Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council

The CCPBioSim speaker at the Tahoe membrane biophysics meeting was Dr Sarah Rouse from Imperial College London. She discussed both her exciting work on the role of cholesterol on membrane protein function & also fair data and reproducibility in MD simulations.

Submitted my first HECBioSim application for computing time 💻👾 ion channels will go brrrr

All applicants in the latest round have been notified about the outcome of their applications this afternoon. We’ve had great proposals & we look forward to hearing about the exciting science that will result from these allocations on tier 1 (National) and tier 2 (regional) HPC.

We are on the search again for a Research Computing officer. Would particularly suit someone with knowledge of cryo-EM and bioinformatics software along with extensive hardware skills. Closes 2nd Aug 2024. my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit… (Previous applicants need not apply).

Excellent science being presented at the mesoscale biomolecular simulations CECAM meeting in Trento. Particularly heartening to hear many coarse-graining philosophies being discussed. Progress comes when we can critically evaluate our methods & contextualise them 💪🏾

The meeting showcases physics-based simulations on supercomputers that are key for future economic growth and development of novel therapeutics. UK work presented is funded by Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council and supported by ARCHER2 HPC Service

We are proud sponsors together with CECAM of the Biomolecular Simulations at the Mesoscale workshop in beautiful Trento. Look out for the short perspective that we will produce soon!

Some great discussions about mesoscale biomolecular simulations this week. Everything from what does ‘mesoscale’ mean, to how best to integrate the theoretical and experimental data at the mesoscale. Thank you CECAM CCPBioSim

Cool new paper from Rouse group featuring simulations of virus-host membrane interactions - sims performed on ARCHER2 HPC Service - access provided by us 💪🏾

We are delighted with the news that £750m is being invested in a new national supercomputer - this is what it means to our community- (video via Science of the Times): youtu.be/-yFU_FJsT1A
