Workshop on the Computational Biophysics of Atomic Force Microscopy
2022 June 20 MEETING
Main organizer:
WPI-Nano Life Science Institute, Kanazawa University
Supporter:
The International Union for Pure and Applied Biophysics (IUPAB)
Date:
September 19-21, 2022
Place:
Main Conference Room, 4th floor, Nano Life Science Institute, Kanazawa University + online (zoom)
Summary:
Held jointly online (zoom) and in person a ‘Workshop on Computational Biophysics of Atomic Force Microscopy – A Lecture Course Approach’ will take place from Sep. 19-21 of 2022 within the symposium hall of the WPI-Nano Life Science Institute at Kanazawa University. The aim of the workshop is to introduce a wide range of computational and theoretical methods applicable to both simulating and analyzing Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) experiments. The described simulation approaches will range from coarse grained mesoscopic through to quantum-level descriptions. The described analytical methods will range from conventional analysis to machine learning approaches. The first day’s keynote talk will be delivered by Distinguished Professor Toshio Ando. A range of expert speakers have been invited and the talks are structured such that each speaker has been given a thematic brief.
Travel awards:
IUPAB Travel Fellowships to attend 'Workshop on the Computational Biophysics of Atomic Force Microscopy' held at the WPI-NanoLSI Kanazawa University
We have received funding from the International Union for Pure and Applied Biophysics (IUPAB) to provide fellowships to help students or postdoctoral fellows (based in Japan) to attend this workshop. Each fellowship involves a signed certificate of award and an up to 300 Euro contribution in support of the student/postdoctoral fellow's attendance at the meeting. Travel expenses will be paid in Japanese yen up to a maximum of 300 euros and will be transferred to your bank account after the workshop.
Eligible applicants: Students or postdoctoral fellows with residency in Japan
Number of applicants: 5
