Online Course on Simulation of Biological Systems
In this course the different computational chemistry methods which are commonly employed for the simulation of biological processes will be explained during the theoretical lectures (12 hours), including classical molecular dynamics, enhanced-sampling methods, and hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) schemes. In addition, during the computer exercises (16 hours) we will model different biological processes with free software: AmberTools, Orca, VMD, MoBioTools, WHAM.
The course will be broadcasted live on our YouTube channel (see links below), where you can participate in the chat.
