Proceedings

The spring school “Physics of Life” provides an introduction to and an overview of current researchtopics in biophysics of living systems, with an emphasis on understanding biological structure, dynamicsand function. Biomolecules, cells, tissues, and their multiscale interactions are the main buildingblocks of biological organisms. [...]

It is an important tradition that the John von Neumann Institute for Computing (NIC) at the Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ) holds biennial symposia, accompanied by proceedings volumes. The present meeting, held on February 22 and 23, 2018, is the 9th NIC symposium in this century; actually the forerunner of today’s NIC, the "Höchstleistungsrechenzentrum (HLRZ)" founded in 1987, held similar meetings in a somewhat different format.
