PISACMS 2023 is approaching!

This edition will be hosted again at the Campus Pierre et Marie Curie of the Sorbonne Université.

    The aim of this school is to form new generations of young researchers to atomic, molecular and condensed phase computational methods, from theory to the most advanced approaches, going from the very microscopic to the macroscopic: Density functional theory, classical Monte-Carlo and molecular dynamics methods, ab initio molecular dynamics, metadynamics, linear response, lattice-Boltzmann methods, quantum Monte Carlo, path-integral molecular dynamics, machine learning methods, ... in atomistic simulations.

    Our ambition is to make students aware of the fundamental principles of each methods, and then able to choose the most adapted one(s) for a given scientific problem. The broad panel of approaches we propose, both via theory lessons and computer lab "projects", is rare in the international landscape, as the best-known schools are more focused on a particular time and length scale level of description.

   This school will benefit both from the exceptional central Paris environment, and from the local concentration of young and confirmed experts-teachers in each specific theme of the school.

    The school will be held from August 28th to September 1st, 2023 at the Campus Pierre et Marie Curie (lodging from August 27th until September 3rd) with the support of the Materials Institute of Sorbonne University.
