Workshop on In-Silico Quantum Modeling Studies 2026

23-27 February 2026

In Silico Quantum Modeling Workshop at IUAC

IUAC is organizing a workshop on In Silico Quantum Modeling Studies to equip researchers, particularly in materials science, with essential computational techniques for studying quantum systems. It features lectures by eminent experts on topics including band structure, density functional theory, modelling of polymers and high pressure, low-dimensional, energy and biological materials, the interface between theory and experiment, and new computing technologies. The lectures are complemented by hands-on computing lab sessions. The software for density functional theory calculations will be SIESTA package. Familiarity with Linux Operating System is a requirement for the hands-on sessions. The participants are required to bring their own laptops with Linux installed on them.
