Title: "Perspective on Simulating Whole Cells with Martini"

Host: Modesto Orozco, Ph.D. - Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Dept. - UB.  Group Leader IRB Barcelona - Molecular Modelling and Bioinformatics Lab - Mechanisms of Disease Programme. 

Abstract

In this talkI will provide the state of the art on the use of the latest version of the coarse-grained Martini model[1] to simulate complex systems, including the possibility to capture chemical reactions[2], and provide a perspective on our current efforts to reach the whole cell  level[3]
