Tristan Bereau
Affiliation:
Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Mainz, Germany
Talk title:
Multiscale simulations augmented by data-driven methods
Scientific interests:
Dr. Bereau is an expert in development of machine learning methods, Markov state modelling, and application of these methods to drug-membrane interactions and peptide folding. These state-of-the-art methods are increasingly used in other fields, such as protein and membrane modelling.

Antti Poso
Affiliation:
University of Tübingen, Germany, and University of Eastern Finland, Kuopio
Talk title:
Virtual screening: (false) positive (or negative) results 2000-2017
Scientific interests:
Prof. Poso has expertise in drug design, in particular virtual drug discovery, which allows detection of highly potent compounds from a large database based on virtual high-throughput screening methods, which he also develops. Such computational approaches play an important role by reducing costs and time of drug-development procedure.
