<pre>School on molecular computational biochemistry
ICSC PAS, Krakow, Poland, 11-14 March 2019

It is our pleasure to invite you to a 4-day long school on molecular 
computational biochemistry that will take place in the Jerzy Haber 
Institute of Catalysis and Surface Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences 
in Krakow on 11-14 March 2019. The school is dedicated mainly to PhD 
students and advanced undergraduate students with interest in 
computational methods used to study molecular phenomena of biochemistry 
and biophysics. 

The lecturers at the school will be (in alphabetic order):
    - Margareta Blomberg, Stockholm University, Sweden,
    - Lukasz Cwiklik, J. Heyrovsky Institute of Physical Chemistry, 
      Czech Academy of Sciences, Czech Republic, 
    - Artur Gora, Silesian University of Technology, Poland,
    - Fahmi Himo, Stockholm University, Sweden, 
    - Wojciech Plazinski, ICSC PAS, Poland,
    - Lubomir Rulisek, Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of 
      the Czech Academy of Sciences, Czech Republic, 
    - Ulf Ryde, Lund University, Sweden, 
    - Andrzej Sokalski, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, 
      Poland,
    - Martin Srnec, J. Heyrovsky Institute of Physical Chemistry, 
      Czech Academy of Sciences, Czech Republic,
    - Matthias Stain, Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex 
      Technical Systems, Germany, 
    - Sam de Visser, The University of Manchester, Great Britain.

The lecture topics include:
    - MD simulations of biosystems,
    - MD enhanced sampling methods,
    - Modeling enantioselectivity in enzymes,
    - Methods for protein tunnels and cavity exploration,
    - Transition state theory &amp; concepts in (bio)catalysis,
    - Solvation models,
    - Electrostatics of molecular interactions,
    - Nonempirical techniques aiding drug and biocatalyst design,
    - Reaction mechanisms including electron and proton uptake in 
      heme-copper oxidases,
    - Valence bond method and spin-state reactivity,
    - QM/MM methods, their application to metalloenzymes and their 
      combination with experimental methods.

The cost of fee is:
- 250 PLN for undergraduate and PhD students,
- 500 PLN for research staff.

Apply by 8th February by filling in a participation form available at 
the school web-page:
