Examination procedure
<p>Oral exam</p>
Prerequisites
Prerequisites: Undergraduate and Master degree courses in Physics, Chemistry, Biology. The course is suggested for PhD and Masters degree students.
Syllabus
The aim of the course is to provide an overview of the theories and methodologies currently used in various fields of computational molecular sciences, ranging from biomedical sciences to material sciences. A special focus will be devoted to those models and algorithms related to molecular simulation techniques, including enhanced sampling and free energy methods. Such models will be illustrated along with relevant examples taken from recent literature and concerning different molecular modeling applications.
