Dear all,

We are glad to announce the Amber Workshop 2014 that will be held in
Barcelona from the 2nd to 6th June at the Vertex Building (UPC
Campus). The course will be taught by Ross C. Walker and Adrian E.
Roitberg and will be hosted by the IRB Barcelona and the Barcelona
supercomputing Center.

* Program
The duration of the meeting is 5 days, from 2nd of June to 6th.
Typically there will be lectures 3 hours per day, and hands-on
tutorials, about 5 hours per day. The content of the Workshop will
include:

* Molecular Dynamics with Amber
* Using VMD to visualize AMBER
* Dealing with non-standard residues
* Building protein-ligand complexes
* Statistical Mechanics for Free Energy Calculations
* MM/PBSA calculations
* Calculating relative binding free energies for protein/carbohydrate
complexes
* Enhanced sampling techniques
* Maximizing Performance (Parallel Execution and NVIDIA GPU Acceleration)
* Umbrella sampling simulations
* Analyzing Simulations
* Introduction to QM/MM Calculations
* Lipid Simulations with AMBER

The target audience is graduate students and postdocs as well as a few
faculty interested in learning about Molecular Dynamics techniques.
The course is designed to introduce Molecular Dynamics techniques from
an introductory perspective but will progress quickly. Some experience
with the Linux operating system is essential but experience with AMBER
or other molecular dynamics packages is not required.

* Registration
The number is limited to 40. Given the limited number of seats you
will be requested to fill a pre-registration form.

Fill the pre-registration form at:
http://mmb.pcb.ub.es/www/amber2014

Important: Pre-registration deadline is 28 of April.

Organizers will review applications and invite those selected to
register by May 8th. From 8th of May, if there are seats available,
the organizers will accept further applications.

Registration fees are 190 euros. Attendees are expected to bring their
own laptop. The organization will provide a pendrive with all
necessary software and training material. Lunch and coffee breaks are
included.
