Electronic-structure simulations for user communities at large-scale facilities
Apr 03, 2025, 14:00 until Apr 09, 2025, 16:00, Zoom
|
The Laboratory for Materials Simulations (LMS), part of the PSI Center for Scientific Computing, Theory, and Data (CSD), is organizing a 4-day focused course on: "Electronic-structure simulations for user communities at large-scale facilities". The objective of the course is to provide a gentle introduction to the current capabilities in electronic-structure simulations for materials, having as key target audience experimentalists working at large-scale facilities. The course will also discuss how to access these capabilities and run simulations through user-friendly web interfaces. All the software and infrastructure is open-source, is currently deployed at PSI, and can be redeployed freely anywhere else.

MARVEL Junior Seminar — April 2025
Apr 25, 2025, from 12:15 until 13:15, Coviz2 (MED 2 1124), EPFL + Zoom
|
The MARVEL Junior Seminars aim to intensify interactions between the MARVEL Junior scientists belonging to different research groups – this is held in hybrid mode, in order to maintain in-person contacts and allow off-campus attendees to follow the seminars remotely! We are pleased to propose the 66th MARVEL Junior Seminar: Anna Paulish (Mathematics for materials modeling - MATMAT, EPFL) and Alessandro Carbone (Lab. of theory and simulation of materials - THEOS, EPFL) will present their research.

2025 Summer camp for high-school students
Jun 23, 2025, 9:00 until Jun 27, 2025, 16:00, EPFL, Lausanne
|
The 1-week camp entitled Des atomes aux ordinateurs, à la découverte de la programmation scientifique is open to teenagers in the last two years of high-school, with no high-level in maths or physics prerequisite. A prior knowledge of the basics of programming is recommended. It is possible to acquire these notions independently if necessary (within 3-4 hours). Half of the seats are reserved for young women. In 2025, it will take place from 23 to 27 June at EPFL. Registrations are open from 3 March until 13 April.

Psi-k 2025 conference
Aug 25, 2025, 14:00 until Aug 28, 2025, 19:00, SwissTech Convention Center, EPFL
|
Psi-k 2025 is the 7th general conference for the worldwide Psi-k community. Held every 5 years, this event is the largest worldwide in first-principles simulations. With more than 1200 participants attending the last edition, the conference is returning to Lausanne this year. It promises to be the most exciting, defining event in the field, offering a stimulating and enjoyable atmosphere, in addition to a chance to explore the beautiful region around Lausanne and Lake Geneva.
