This practical course teaches the basics of multicellular modelling to any researcher wishing to enter the field, particularly experimentalists with no prior experience of computational modelling. It is a “hands-on” course with 60% of the time devoted to students working on laptops performing exercises designed to give a practical familiarity with different types of computational modelling. The course focuses on the dynamics of multicellular systems- from embryos to organoids, covering both the molecular side (how gene regulatory networks perform pattern formation) and also the mechanical side in 2D and 3D (how the movements and activities of many cells together leads to tissue-level morphogenesis and organisation). A carefully-chosen variety of modelling tools will be introduced, which cover the core approaches of vertex models, finite element models (FEM), and agent-based models (ABM). Attendees will also work through the week in small groups on group projects, which will be presented on the last day to the whole class. Each day will end with a keynote lecture by a prominent researcher in the field, putting the topic of the day into context through an example of relevant biological research.

The MDMM conference is a biennial event that has been organized for the past 20 years, and it is one of the major scientific meetings in Central and Eastern Europe. MDMM2025 is the tenth meeting in the MDMM series. The conference focuses on the theoretical modeling and design of novel molecular materials with applications in biotechnology (biocatalysts), pharmacy (drugs), material engineering, and nanotechnology (sensors). Participation of experimentalists interested in application of molecular modeling techniques is encouraged. As new modeling methods have always been a key part of the event, this year we are planning a special session on the applications of machine learning and artificial intelligence in chemistry, biotechnology, and material sciences.

The summer school will combine a series of lectures with practical computational sessions and laboratory visits. The lectures will address a broad range of topics related to spectroscopy and computational chemistry. The practical sessions will be focused both on fundamental pen-and-paper problems and on the use of computational tools for spectroscopic simulations and for quantum chemical calculations. Significant emphasis will be placed on the use of the ORCA package for quantum chemical calculations of spectroscopic properties.
