Follow the team as they start their Third AiiDA coding week in the Swiss Alps. The goal? Getting as close as possible to the next major AiiDA release (1.0). Follow them on Twitter here and see their photo album for updates here.

The 2018 edition of Scientastic, the EPFL Science Festival, being held on Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 November, will bring you to the heart of the digital world: MARVEL will be part of the adventure.

An installation sponsored by NCCR MARVEL and EPFL's Institute of Materials will be presented for the first time at 16:30 on Thursday, 8 November in the entry hall of building MX on the EPFL campus. Please join us to celebrate.  

Welcome to the 19th MARVEL Junior Seminar on Thursday November 8, 2018, 12:15 pm, EPFL, room ELA2. Daniele Ongari (EPFL, LSMO) gives a presentation on 'AiiDA for gas adsorption in nanoporous materials' and Francesco Nattino (EPFL, THEOS) on 'Continuum models of the electrochemical diffuse layer in electronic-structure calculations'. The seminar is chaired by Kun-Han Lin.

Welcome to the 18th MARVEL Junior Seminar on Thursday October 4, 2018, 12:15 pm, EPFL, room MED 0 1418. Benjamin Meyer (EPFL, LCMD) gives a presentation on 'Revealing the interplay between covalent and non-covalent interactions in organic molecular crystals under pressure with DORI' and Binglun Yin (EPFL, LAMMM) on 'First-principles-based prediction of yield strength in the RhIrNiPdPtCu high entropy alloy'. The seminar is chaired by Davide Campi.

Make sure to network with colleagues from the materials science scene in Switzerland! The NCCR MARVEL and CCMX are co-organizing their second Materials Science day, featuring both experimental and modelling approaches to current challenges in materials science. 

This workshop aims to bring together French and European actors on the theme of artificial intelligence (AI) applied to chemistry and materials science. With both general and specific presentations, this meeting will be an opportunity to define the state of the art about applications of AI in fields like solid-state chemistry.

The talks in this webinar will complement the MRS Bulletin issue, and an interactive Q&A will be held with each of the speakers following their talks.

The fifth MARVEL Review and Retreat, gathering all MARVEL members, will take place just after the International Workshop on Computational Design and Discovery of Novel Materials (COMDI 2018), on Wed. September 12, 2018 afternoon. For registering, please see the instructions below.

This webinar is a precursor of Symposium GI01, Machine Learning, AI, and Data-Driven Materials Development and Design, to be held during the 2018 MRS Fall Meeting & Exhibit in Boston.

Visit the COMDI 2018 website! The International Workshop on Computational Design and Discovery of Novel Materials, open to the international community active in the field of MARVEL, will take place on September 10-12, 2018 at the SwissTech Convention Center, Lausanne. Registration is extended until 20 June 2018.

Thursday September 6, 2018, 16:15 pm, EPFL, Room MXF1, Prof. Sally Price (University College London, UK), Can we predict how pharmaceuticals will crystallize?
