Played continuously by the ensemble throughout the piece, the motif evolves under Julian Sartorius’s direction as he adapts the instrumentation (adding, substituting, or removing objects or instruments).<br>\r\n<br>\r\nA journey through minimalism, repetition, musical progression, and a deluge of sound. The concert stems from an experiment in which the addition, removal, or modification of basic elements generates new content. It also incorporates playfulness, the freedom to assemble elements, and the surprise of unexpected sound combinations. Much like many scientific protocols, this method—here applied to music—suggests avenues of convergence between scientific and creative practices.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/hZ4HRiNTQC4?si=RXzPTogaFJIKH2dK\" width=\"560\"></iframe><br>\r\nAt 7 p.m. that evening, as part of the opening reception for the installation <strong>NO/NC (Normally Open/Normally Closed)</strong>, co-created with Archizoom, Julian Sartorius will give a solo concert.<br>\r\n---<br>\r\n<strong>Biography of <a href=\"http://www.juliansartorius.com/\">Julian Sartorius</a></strong><br>\r\nDrummer, percussionist, and artist Julian Sartorius shapes sounds into unique forms. His precise and rich rhythmic patterns are true explorations of the hidden sounds of found objects and prepared instruments, bridging the gap between organic timbres and the language of electronic music. Julian Sartorius has released numerous solo albums, created audiovisual works, collaborated with musicians, writers, and artists, and performed in everything from intimate venues to festival stages.</div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW167897111\"><br>\r\nTrained at the jazz schools in Bern and Lucerne under the guidance of musicians such as Fabian Kuratli, Pierre Favre, and Norbert Pfammatter, Julian Sartorius developed a unique musical approach at a very early age. Fascinated by small-scale variations, the interplay of tension and release, density, and vibration, he has created projects such as the 12-vinyl box set *Beat Diary* (Everest Records, 2012), comprising 365 rhythmic pieces accompanied by a book of photographs; the daily series of eight-second loops “Morphblog” (2013–2019); and “Depot,” an audiovisual installation for 16 speakers and 16 screens, presented at the Kunstmuseum in Thun. For his album “Hidden Tracks: Basel – Geneva” (Everest Records, 2017), Julian walked more than 200 kilometers with his drumsticks and recording equipment, playing and capturing a multitude of sounds and textures from objects he encountered along the way.<br>\r\n </div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW167897111\">In recent years, Julian Sartorius has collaborated with numerous musicians, including Sophie Hunger, Sylvie Courvoisier, Gyda Valtysdottir, Dimlite, Shahzad Ismaily, and Dan Carey. His instantly recognizable percussion work also appears on recent albums by Kate Tempest, Matthew Herbert, and James Zoo. Julian Sartorius has toured and performed in North and South America, Asia, and Europe, sharing the stage with artists such as Marc Ribot, Deerhoof, Faust, Jaki Liebezeit, and Arto Lindsay.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n---  <br>\r\n<a href=\"http://usinesonore.ch/\"><strong>Usinesonore</strong></a><br>\r\nThe Usinesonore association shares its passion for music by promoting it through various activities in the Canton of Bern and beyond. It was previously invited to EPFL in 2017.<br>\r\nFounded in 2006 by Julien Annoni and Olivier Membrez, two young Bernese Jura natives passionate about contemporary music, the Usinesonore association organizes events centered on today’s music.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe association’s activities focus on three main areas: organizing the Usinesonore Festival, the Ensemble We Spoke, and organizing parallel events (traveling concerts, custom-designed events, outreach activities, etc.).<br>\r\n<br>\r\nEach event is shaped by careful consideration of how to share it with the audience. Usinesonore devotes all its energy to ensuring that the audience can experience the artistic moment, that they do not leave indifferent, and that they feel heard and supported throughout their experience.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Partner: <a href=\"http://usinesonore.ch/\">Usinesonore</a></strong><br>\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>\r\n</div>",

They are constantly changing, continually shifting.

Held every week, alternating between <strong>Tuesdays and Thursdays</strong>, these sessions provide an opportunity for laboratories, platforms, centers, and units to receive guidance and support on implementing more sustainable laboratory practices.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe <strong>Sustainable Labs initiative</strong> is part of EPFL's <em>Climate &amp; Sustainability Strategy 2030</em>, which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by an average of <strong>40% compared to 2006/2019 levels</strong> and achieve <strong>climate neutrality by 2040</strong>.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n→<a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/about/sustainability/sustainability/green-labs_draft_ag/\"> </a><strong><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/about/sustainability/sustainability/green-labs_draft_ag/\">Learn more about the EPFL Sustainable Labs initiative</a>.</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nResearch activities are a key lever for achieving these ambitious goals. However, while cutting-edge research drives innovation, it also carries a significant environmental footprint. Laboratories consume large amounts of energy, generate substantial quantities of plastic, chemical, and biological waste, and contribute considerably to greenhouse gas emissions. At EPFL, we are committed to understanding and reducing this impact. Through the development and deployment of the <strong>EPFL CO₂ Calculator</strong>, we help researchers measure, understand, and improve the environmental performance of their activities.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nFrom <strong>October 8 to December 17, 2026</strong>, the <strong>Sustainable Labs: Get Involved</strong> sessions will focus on training and supporting users in the use of the <strong>EPFL CO₂ Calculator</strong>. This tool enables laboratories, platforms, centers, and central units to estimate their carbon footprint, identify major emission hotspots, and support informed decision-making to reduce their environmental impact through targeted actions.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nHere are the planned sessions : \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Thursday October 8th 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday October 13th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday October 22th 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday October 27th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday November 5th 12:15-13:00(online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday November 10th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday November 19th 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday November 24th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday December 3rd 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday December 8th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday December 17th 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n</ul>\r\nSessions can be held in English and/ or French depending on the participants. <br>\r\n<br>\r\n→ Please register <a href=\"https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd7Cp6LevgtBLtsWIsKr2Ec_HPGjJgimmwEaGAN5U4M4-2rrg/viewform\">here</a>.

The collective employs sensory cartography, creates drawings and texts, and composes music. On June 12 and 13, 2026, the Lake Geneva Bioregional Assemblies took place at the Vidy Theater, during which Hydromondes brought together a myriad of Franco-Swiss collectives to create a cross-border community dedicated to the care of the waters.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe collaboration between the collective and <a href=\"http://applicationspub.unil.ch/interpub/noauth/php/Un/UnPers.php?PerNum=1277309&amp;LanCode=37\">Nathalia Capellini,</a> a historian at the University of Lausanne (UNIL) and instructor in the EPFL’s SHS program, gave rise to the performance *Le Léman Cyborg*, presented on May 7, 2026, as part of the *Culturelles de printemps* festival. Nathalia Capellini’s course titled “Infrastructures” had fueled the project. This collaboration between the collective and the academic community will therefore continue for the Culturelles in October 2026, with a more participatory format—somewhere between an artistic presentation and a town hall meeting—in a playful atmosphere.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>&gt;&gt;&gt; Free admission; <a href=\"http://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/ffSBMqP21Y\">light refreshments provided upon registration</a></strong></div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW196505929\"> \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>\r\n</div>",

They would flood our living spaces with landscapes, selfies, cats, vehicles, and meals scattered as far as the eye can see.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nEvery day, we produce images, messages, and data that we store on servers and in the cloud. But what becomes of this digital output?<br>\r\n<em>White Shadow</em> is a series of photographs created by <a href=\"http://collectif-fact.ch/\">collectif_fact</a> (Annelore Schneider and Claude Piguet). It was produced using photogrammetry, a technology that transforms photographs into 3D models. The images are generated from data sourced from online libraries. The result is a dizzying architecture so pervasive that it erects barriers and isolates individuals from one another. A society is emerging, grappling with media saturation, sensory overload, and a crushing ecological impact. A world is emerging where images have taken over, colonizing and transforming space until they become the only reality still visible.<br>\r\nThis narrative is a metaphor that prompts reflection on our responsibility regarding our daily digital output and its consequences for the environment.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"http://collectif-fact.ch/\">collectif_fact</a><br>\r\ncollectif_fact, founded by Annelore Schneider (1979, Neuchâtel) and Claude Piguet (1977, Neuchâtel), explores the economics of the contemporary image through video and photography, drawing on speculative narratives and fiction. Their works have been exhibited at institutions such as the Maison européenne de la photographie (Paris), the Centre d’art contemporain (Geneva), the Swiss Cultural Center (Paris), the Hiroshima Museum of Contemporary Art, the Lianzhou Foto Festival, the Metropolis Art Center (Beijing), and the Fotomuseum Winterthur. They recently received the Landis &amp; Gyr residency in London, the New Point of View Award from This is Short (European Short Film Network), and the Best Short Film Award at the International Festival of Films on Art (FIFA). They are represented by Galerie Wilde in Geneva.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTheir works—videos, photographs, and installations—are part of the following collections: the City of Paris Municipal Contemporary Art Fund, Haus der Elektronischen Künste, Basel; the Lyon Museum of Contemporary Art; the Federal Office of Culture, Bern; the Fotomuseum Winterthur; the Neuchâtel Museum of Art and History; La Chaux-de-Fonds Museum of Fine Arts, Geneva Municipal Contemporary Art Collection, Geneva Cantonal Contemporary Art Collection, Museum of Communication, Bern, Visual Arts Collection, City of Biel, and Sion Art Museum.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"http://collectif-fact.ch/\">&gt; Collectif-Fact website</a><br>\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>\r\n</div>",

Do not hesitate to contact the <a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">CECAM Event Manager</a> if you have any question.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Description</strong><br>\r\nSince its introduction in the 1970s, molecular dynamics (MD) has become an indispensable computational microscope for studying complex biological systems at atomic resolution. It has enabled detailed investigations into protein folding, conformational dynamics, and ligand binding and unbinding. Over the past decade, increasing computational power has made microsecond-scale simulations routine, producing massive datasets that demand sophisticated analysis strategies [1]. Despite these advances, conventional MD simulations still face a fundamental limitation: many biologically relevant events occur over milliseconds to seconds—timescales largely inaccessible to standard MD.<br>\r\nTo bridge this gap, researchers increasingly turn to enhanced sampling techniques—such as metadynamics and umbrella sampling [2,3]—and coarse-grained (CG) modeling approaches [4]. These methods enable more comprehensive exploration of the system’s free energy landscape, yet their success critically depends on the selection of appropriate reaction coordinates or collective variables (CVs). CVs must capture the slowest, most functionally relevant motions to accurately reflect thermodynamic and kinetic behavior. However, identifying suitable CVs remains one of the field’s most challenging tasks, typically requiring domain expertise and iterative refinement [5, 6].<br>\r\nThis complexity has fueled growing interest in machine learning (ML) techniques, which are now transforming how MD simulations are analyzed, interpreted, and even conducted. ML methods have been applied to automate CV discovery, perform dimensionality reduction, build thermodynamic and kinetic models, and enhance sampling efficiency [7]. These models often employ artificial neural networks or graph neural networks to map high-dimensional molecular configurations—such as Cartesian coordinates or molecular descriptors—into low-dimensional representations suitable for analysis [8].<br>\r\nDepending on the structure and type of data, ML algorithms can be broadly categorized into supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning paradigms [9]. Supervised learning uses labeled input-output pairs to predict properties such as molecular energies or binding affinities [10], while unsupervised learning enables the identification of latent features, such as CVs, directly from data [11].<br>\r\nA cornerstone of modern ML-driven simulation is the development of symmetry-aware molecular representations. The predictive power of ML models hinges on encoding physical symmetries—like rotation and translation—directly into the model. E(3)-equivariant neural networks have emerged as powerful tools for this purpose, significantly improving data efficiency and generalization in learning potential energy surfaces [12]. Ongoing research continues to explore the optimal balance between enforcing strict symmetry and retaining model flexibility.<br>\r\nMeanwhile, breakthroughs in structural prediction—most notably the advent of AlphaFold 3—have revolutionized how researchers obtain initial molecular configurations. AlphaFold now provides remarkably accurate models of not only proteins but also their complexes with nucleic acids, ions, and small-molecule ligands [13]. However, these are static snapshots. They cannot capture dynamic behaviors, allosteric transitions, or binding kinetics—areas where physics-based simulations remain indispensable. Initial benchmarks suggest that even state-of-the-art predictors still fall short in modeling protein dynamics and ranking ligand binding affinities, further emphasizing the role of MD [14].<br>\r\nTo address the dimensionality and sampling bottlenecks, unsupervised ML approaches such as time-lagged autoencoders have reframed CV identification as a data-driven task. More recently, generative models—including diffusion models and variational autoencoders—have emerged as a new frontier. These models can learn the full conformational landscape of biomolecules and enable enhanced sampling, in some cases eliminating the need for predefined CVs altogether [15].<br>\r\nOnce accurate structural models and CVs are established, ML can significantly improve the estimation of thermodynamic and kinetic properties. In drug discovery, for instance, predicting protein–ligand binding affinity remains a central challenge. ML potentials trained on quantum mechanical data can be combined with enhanced sampling to yield highly accurate free energy landscapes and binding kinetics—results previously unattainable due to computational limitations [16]. However, challenges in data quality, model interpretability, and transferability remain critical areas of ongoing investigation [17].<br>\r\nFinally, ML is driving a renaissance in CG modeling. Deep neural networks can now learn many-body CG potentials directly from all-atom simulations, capturing emergent properties and enhancing transferability [18]. These models open the door to longer, larger-scale simulations with greater physical accuracy.<br>\r\nIn this rapidly evolving context, it becomes imperative to critically assess both the promise and limitations of ML in biomolecular simulation. The excitement surrounding these developments must be tempered by careful validation and benchmarking. This workshop thus serves as a timely opportunity—especially for early-career researchers—to explore these cutting-edge methods, engage in constructive dialogue, and chart new directions in the application of machine learning to molecular dynamics and drug discovery.<br>\r\n <br>\r\n<strong>References</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.98.146401\" target=\"_blank\">[1] J.
