On July 7 and 8, the Center for Graduate Studies and Continuing Education of the Universidad de Santiago (CEPEC-USACH) hosted a new edition of the Molecular Dynamics Workshop: Bringing Theory Closer to Experiment, a free event open to undergraduate and graduate students interested in learning and applying nanomaterial simulation tools.
Over two intensive days, 16 participants from five universities worked with computational tools that make it possible to model materials at the atomic scale, exploring everything from theory to virtual experimentation. The experience not only strengthened their knowledge, but also fostered interdisciplinary exchange between science and technology programs.
From the Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, CEDENNA, Drs. Samuel Baltazar, Nicolás Plaza, Rafael González and Fernando Corvacho actively collaborated, contributing all their knowledge to bring theory closer to practice in this fundamental field for the study of materials, nanoscience and nanotechnology.
This workshop sought not only to provide theoretical knowledge, but also to generate practical experience in numerical simulations, an increasingly sought-after tool in fields such as engineering, physics and chemistry.
