Talk Title: “Accelerated Molecular Simulations and Drug Discovery” Remarkable advances of supercomputing and artificial intelligence (AI) are transforming computational chemistry, biology and medicine in studies of molecules to cells. However, large gaps remain between the time scales of supercomputer simulations (typically microseconds) and those of biological processes (milliseconds or even longer). It has proven challenging … Read more
