3rd Conference on Multiscale Modelling of Condensed Phase and Biological Systems - CCPBioSim & CCP5
From Monday 21 May 2018
To Wednesday 23 May 2018

The collaborative computational projects for biomolecular and condensed matter simulation, CCPBioSim and CCP5, are holding a third international conference on the theme of multiscale modelling in Manchester, following on from previous events held in 2014 and 2016.
