Introduction
We are pleased to invite you to apply for the 2016 Kinetics and Markov State Models (MSM) workshop. This event focuses on the study of the kinetics of biomolecular processes at the atomistic and systems scales, via in-silico approaches such as Markov State Models and other suitable techniques.
Seating is limited, so if interested please fill out the application form as soon as possible.
We look forward to seeing you there!

Workshop Format
There will be a number of 30-minute talks spaced over two days, with ample time to deliberate and network. Experts will discuss topics such as the use of MSM in the study of binding kinetics, allostery and conformational transitions at the molecular level, the implementation of stochastic algorithms to investigate the kinetics of non-equilibrium bioprocesses at the systems level, and the role of these approaches towards improving the accuracy and efficiency of drug discovery.
Participants are welcome to suggest topics related to the field, to be addressed during the discussion sessions.
