The purpose of the summer school is to bring together leading scientists in computational physics, computational chemistry and computational biology and in scientific computing with PhD students in these fields to solve problems with multiple scales of research interest.

Lectures on computational multiscale techniques will be presented in the first week. The afternoons are devoted to the solution of computational exercises in small groups. Cross-disciplinary and challenging problems will be given by experts in the second week of the summer school. Groups of students and the experts will work together on the solution of the problems. PhD students can receive credit for the summer school at their home departments.

The summer school is intended for PhD students in applied mathematics, numerical analysis, scientific computing, computational physics, computational chemistry and compuational biology.

Students affiliated with a university in Finland, Norway, and Sweden are encouraged to apply for a scholarship to cover the expenses at the summer school.
