Interactive Materials Talks 2024

Gaining and further developing a comprehensive theoretical understanding of (bio)material systems and their behavior in contact with living matter is crucial for state of the art material design and development. This also includes learning more about how guided material developments based on theory-based predictions can be implemented.

We are delighted to host some inspiring speakers of simulation and modelling research fields that will give us insights into their research. Also we will have the opportunity to discuss with them new data-driven research approaches for inverse material design to expand a general understanding of complex material systems.

The symposium will take place on Thursday, March 14, 2024, starting at 10 a.m. in the seminar room of the Leibniz Joint Lab "first in Translation".

We look forward to seeing you there and to inspiring discussions.
