Synopsis:

Molecular dynamics (MD) is one of the most widespread atomistic simulation methods used, for example, in the prediction of experimental data, studies of viruses, design of complex materials, or development of drugs. Within this course, basic principles of MD will be discussed with the active involvement of students during teaching. During semester, students will work on a selected project illustrating practical applications of MD. Interim results or problems will be discussed and solved collectively. The output of each project will be a scientific form of presentation. In this way, not only knowledge of MD, but also teamwork, independent research and presentation skills will be developed.
