This is evident from the now-standard use of molecular dynamics simulations by molecular biologists and biophysicists, and the remarkable success of AlphaFold, which has convinced even the most skeptical of the critical role of these methods in contemporary biological research.<br>\r\nHowever, new challenges are emerging. It is increasingly apparent that to understand biomolecular function, we must move beyond studying isolated molecules. The focus is now shifting towards examining large, dynamic complexes of biomolecules within their complex native environments, complete with post-translational modifications. Embracing this complexity is crucial for understanding how biological functions and cellular structures emerge and adapt.<br>\r\nThis workshop will address existing and emerging frontiers, discussing both current challenges and the future of molecular simulations needed to meet them. It will gather simulation experts that have been actively developing methods that can increase simulation accuracy and extend their applicability range across multiple scales, as well as experimentalists performing advanced studies that can address outstanding challenges occurring at computationally accessible time and length scales. A main aim will be to discuss how to improve the accuracy of simulations, integrate simulations and cutting-edge experiments, and how to best take advantage of innovative enhanced sampling and machine learning-based approaches.<br>\r\nThe workshop will seize the opportunity to celebrate the outstanding scientific achievements of Gerhard Hummer, a prominent leader in the field, on his sixty’s birthday. Many of the participants that have already expressed their intention to attend and support the workshop or past or current theoretical and experimental scientist that have been either collaborators and co-authors, mentored by, or inspired by Gerhard’s ideas and expertise.</p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-01-26T15:39:35", "last_modification_date": "2026-01-26T16:44:37", "link_label": "Bridging Biomolecular Simulations and Experiments Across Time and Length Scales: from Single Molecul", "link_url": "https://www.cecam.org/workshop-details/bridging-biomolecular-simulations-and-experiments-across-time-and-length-scales-from-single-molecules-to-entire-organelles-1493", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "BCH 2103", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==BCH%202103", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "", "organizer": "<strong>Nicolae-Viorel Buchete</strong>, University College Dublin ; <strong>Pilar Cossio</strong>, Flatiron Institute ; <strong>Roberto Covino</strong>, Goethe University Frankfurt -- Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies ; <strong>Ville Kaila</strong>, Stockholm University ; <strong>Edina Rosta</strong>, University College London", "contact": "<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\"><strong>Cornelia Bujenita</strong></a>, CECAM Events and Operations Manager", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Sur inscription", "en_label": "Registration required" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/119449/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/442/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71169, "title": "Des Cèdres à Dorigny, bâtir l'école d'architecture / ACM ARCHIZOOM", "slug": "des-cedres-a-dorigny-batir-l-ecole-d-architectur-8", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/des-cedres-a-dorigny-batir-l-ecole-d-architectur-8", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32537/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32537/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32537/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-09-22", "end_date": "2026-09-22", "start_time": "17:30:00", "end_time": null, "description": "<strong>DES CÈDRES À DORIGNY, <br>\r\nBÂTIR L’ÉCOLE D’ARCHITECTURE<br>\r\n04.03-29.09.2026<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTuesday 22 September 5.30pm, with an ACM archivist</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nFocusing on architectural projects, both built and unrealised, kept in the archives of modern construction, the exhibition <em>Des Cèdres à Dorigny</em> tells the story of the birth and evolution of the Lausanne School of Architecture.

These receptors are essential to critical functions such as metabolism, immune regulation, neuronal signaling, and sensory perception - including vision and olfaction. Due to their physiological relevance and membrane accessibility, GPCRs are the targets of approximately 34% of all prescribed medications, accounting for nearly 27% of the global pharmaceutical market [3]. <br>\r\nDespite their pharmaceutical importance, key aspects of GPCR function remain elusive. The canonical activation model posits that agonist binding to the extracellular orthosteric site triggers allosteric changes - most notably, the outward displacement of transmembrane helices 5 (TM5) and 6 (TM6) on the intracellular side - ultimately leading to receptor activation [2-4]. However, recent evidence suggests a more nuanced mechanism. In several GPCRs, activation appears to involve cooperative engagement between the agonist and the G protein. For example, the G protein may disrupt an \"inactivating ionic lock\" - a salt bridge between TM3 and TM6 - while the agonist stabilizes the active conformation. In some receptors, this is complemented by the formation of an “activating ionic lock” between TM5 and TM6 [5-8]. These dual contributions are considered thermodynamically essential for full activation [7].<br>\r\nAdding further complexity, GPCR activity is regulated by conformational microswitches and finely tuned intra-protein interaction networks. These dynamic rearrangements are difficult to capture and often elude direct correlation with functional outcomes. Moreover, allosteric ligands - which bind sites distinct from the orthosteric pocket - are being increasingly identified [9-12], along with small molecules capable of biased signaling, i.e., preferential activation of specific intracellular pathways [11-13, 16, 17]. These findings reveal a rich and underexplored conformational landscape that governs GPCR signaling. In addition, native membrane components—such as lipids and interacting proteins, including GPCR oligomers—are known to significantly modulate receptor function [11, 18-22].<br>\r\nTo disentangle these intricacies, computational modeling has become indispensable, offering atomistic insight into GPCR conformational dynamics and mechanistic understanding [1-2, 7, 11, 14, 16–21, 23]. Nevertheless, key questions remain - particularly regarding the structural basis of biased signaling, strategies for leveraging allosteric networks in pharmacology, and the modulatory role of the lipid environment. Addressing these gaps is crucial for both fundamental biology and the rational design of next-generation GPCR-targeting drugs with improved selectivity and safety profiles. <br>\r\nThese scientific challenges form the foundation of our upcoming workshop, which will focus on the latest experimental and computational approaches for studying the functional dynamics of GPCRs. Given the profound health, economic, and societal implications of modulating these receptors with precision, we aim to strengthen the interdisciplinary nature of the event by increasing the representation of experimental research and integrating cutting-edge artificial intelligence applications into the program.<br>\r\nBuilding upon the success of the 2022 and 2024 editions - which led to new collaborations and a landmark publication in <em>Nature Reviews Drug Discovery</em> [24] - our goal is to further enhance communication and collaboration between experimentalists and theoreticians. The workshop will serve as a reference point for young scientists and students, offering a platform to interact with leading international experts. We are confident that this initiative will foster insightful discussions and contribute meaningfully to advancing the field of GPCR pharmacology.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>References</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1038/nrd.2017.229\" target=\"_blank\">[1] J.
