The Thomas Young Centre (University College London, Imperial College London, King’s College London, and Queen Mary University of London) and its partners, the University of Southampton, Brunel University London, and the University of Reading take great pleasure to announce the Materials and Molecular Modelling (MMM) Hub and UKCP Conference and User Meeting 2025, to be held this year at Keele University, between 15 – 18 September 2025.
We are excited to announce that the Hub Conference will be preceded by a meeting of the United Kingdom Car-Parrinello Consortium (UKCP) community, from Monday lunchtime to Tuesday lunchtime. Crossover talks will take place on Tuesday morning which will be of interest to everyone.
Leading expert invited speakers will deliver talks in state-of the art materials simulation techniques and software developments in High Performance Computing. Contributed talks from MMM Hub Users will inform the scientific innovations taking place at the Hub, addressing advanced materials, biological and soft matter, catalysis, multi-scale modelling, materials discovery and design and the impacts to society and industry seen through simulation of materials at the atomic scale. Participants will be exposed to the latest technological advances in HPC, which continues to play a fundamental role in driving forward the progress of computational science, with a focus on software development and hardware advances.
Invited Speakers:
Marina Filip, University of Oxford
Vanda Glezakou, Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Denis Kramer, Helmut Schmidt University
Andrew J. Morris, University of Birmingham
Felix Plasser, Loughborough University
Misbah Sarwar, Johnson Matthey
