Topic: Computational Work

AI structure prediction and physics-based simulations provide complementary views of molecular interactions. This workshop integrates them to study conformational change, heterogeneity, disordered regions, molecular machines and multicomponent complexes. Around half of the programme comprises practical computational work, with participants using their own scientific problems in hands-on sessions, short presentations and troubleshooting discussions.

There has been increasing interest in the neurocomputational mechanisms underlying psychotic disorders in recent years. One promising approach is based on the theoretical framework of predictive processing, which proposes that inferences regarding the state of the world are made by combining prior beliefs with sensory signals. Delusions and hallucinations are the core symptoms of psychosis and often co-occur. Yet, different predictive-processing alterations have been proposed for these two symptom dimensions, according to which the relative weighting of prior beliefs in perceptual inference is
