Current and Future Events

CECAM and MARVEL present a new event in our Mary Ann Mansigh Conversation series. In a discussion with Dr Magdalena Gronau, chemist, and Martin Gronau, classicist and scholar of ancient studies,  both at the Leibniz Centre for Literary and Cultural Research in Berlin, drawing on previously unexamined sources, we will reassess controversy surrounding Erwin Schrödinger’s private relationships and offers a new perspective on his complex personal life, taking into account the viewpoints of his female partners, whose voices have remained largely unheard.

We invite you to join this webinar to discover "How can AI unlock innovation in Advanced Materials". Drawing on recent work in the European Scientific Advice Mechanism, the expert panel will set out the opportunities of AI and other digital technologies in transforming innovation in Advanced Materials. Among the panel members, meet Prof. Nicola Marzari, director of NCCR MARVEL. 

On July 9-10, 2026, MARVEL final event at EPFL will close 12 years of research and activities on computational materials science. This event will be dedicated to the accomplishments of MARVEL and to the relevance of these to the industrial and technological ecosystem, inviting alumni and key players worldwide in academia and industry, SNSF review panel, scientific and industrial advisory boards, EPFL leadership, and scientific journalists.
