Latest revision as of 21:27, 27 April 2024

We are planning to hold an oxDNA users and developers workshop in Oxford September 2-5 2024. The aim of the workshop is to bring together both developers and users of the oxDNA, oxRNA and oxNA models to share current research projects and to set the agenda for the future development of the oxDNA family of models, code and infrastructure, as well as to identify (and begin to address) current shortcomings. Particular foci are likely to be inter-operability of DNA design and other simulation tools, see for example those listed on tacoxdna, and user-friendly tools to improve oxDNA accessibility for non-expert users, see for example oxview

Location

Schedule

The conference will start the morning of Monday 2 September, and end the afternoon of Thursday 5 September.

The programme will be similar to our previous OxDNA users and developers workshop 2019 and contain:

1) Short research presentations from most attendees. These will help to highlight the range of work for which oxDNA is being used, tools that have been developed, and wish lists for future development.

2) Discussion-based sessions to define the agenda for future development and to identify key targets and outline plans for implementation.

3) "Hackathon" sessions where we begin to address the simpler targets and make detailed plans for future development and collaborations.

4) A conference dinner and other social events.

A full schedule will be posted here closer to the conference date.
