FEBRUARY 16, 2023

We are excited to announce the OMSF Symposium 2023 — the first in-person event by the Open Molecular Software Foundation, the hosting organization for Open Force Field, Open Free Energy, OpenFold, and WESTPA. The event will serve in the role of the normal annual meetings for these projects, and will feature keynotes, project-specific breakouts, discussions, and hands-on sessions. We will record presentations and enable remote participation during talks, but all discussions and panels will be offline and follow the Chatham House rule to promote free discussion.
