UChicago to lead first U.S.-based node of top computational modeling network
Dec 14, 2023
The University of Chicago announced this week the formation of the first U.S.-based node of the Centre Européen de Calcul Atomique and Moléculaire (European Centre for Atomic and Molecular Computation, or CECAM), which will provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and collaborations in frontier areas of computational science and technology.
UChicago will lead the CECAM-US-Central node, joining Midwestern partners Argonne National Laboratory, Northwestern University, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the University of Notre Dame.
Together they will pursue research in condensed matter physics and chemistry, hard and soft molecular modeling and simulation, computational science, as well as data science and artificial intelligence in the context of molecular design. They also will participate in workshops, exchanges, schools, training programs and external partnerships.
