MARVEL Junior Seminar - May 2026

May 08, 2026, 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 73rd MARVEL Junior Seminar: Bruno Ploumhans (Mathematics for materials modelling - MatMat, EPFL) and Sofia Petrova (Computational Molecular Design Laboratory - LCMD, EPFL) will present their research.

Each seminar consists of two presentations of 25 minutes each, allowing to present on a scientific question in depth, followed by time for discussion. The discussion is facilitated and timed by the chair.

Pizzas will be served after the seminars in order to facilitate discussions based on the talks just presented.
