AUNAB warmly invites you to our next Research Meeting on Simulating Life-Like Systems.
We are happy to present a fantastic interdicisplinary line up, consiting of 3x30-minute keynote talks and 5x10-minute invited talks. 
Talks will cover topics such as molecular dynamics, machine learning, protein design, origin of life and much more
At the workshop we will work on bridging the theoretical and experimental research within this area. 

• Date: March 27, 2026
• Venue: Department of Mathematics, building 1531, room 113
• Registration is required. Deadline is March 19th.
