What is the UGM?
Materials Design MedeA User Group Meeting
The Materials Design MedeA User Group Meeting (UGM) offers a valuable chance to collaborate with peers and developers, share findings, explore the latest MedeA advancements, and stay updated on cutting-edge developments in computational material science and engineering.
Why attend the UGM?
Scientific Talks
The Plenary sessions cover a broad range of research and modeling areas that will educate and inspire. This research fuels the development of our software and enriches its scientific foundation.
Confirmed Speakers:
-
Oct. 6: Dr. Ivoyl Koutsaroff, Akoustis Technologies Inc. and SpaceX
-
Oct. 13: Professor Georg Kresse, University of Vienna and VASP GmbH
-
Oct. 20: Professor Seán Kavanagh, University of Cambridge
-
Oct. 27: Professor Ralf Drautz, Ruhr-University Bochum
Plenary speakers will be present for Q&A on Tuesdays throughout the month of sessions.
Training Sessions
Thursdays throughout the UGM month will feature innovative training workshops, facilitated by the Materials Design Support Team. The training sessions present a rare and exclusive opportunity to delve into the capabilities of the MedeA Environment. Participants are encouraged to ask questions to the Materials Design Support Team. The topics covered will be closely aligned with the presentations delivered by the plenary speakers.
These sessions are open to customers on maintenance only. Spaces for training are limited, so we recommend early registration to secure your spot.
Discover More of What MedeA Can Do
Join us on October 14th for a live MedeA software demonstration, open to both current customers and those interested in learning more about MedeA.
MedeA offers a broad range of capabilities, and even experienced users may be familiar with only a portion of what the platform has to offer. This session will showcase how VASP and LAMMPS are integrated within MedeA, along with advanced tools, high-throughput calculations, and integrated computational workflows.
Whether you’re a current MedeA user looking to expand how you use the platform or you’re exploring MedeA for the first time, this session will provide a practical look at its capabilities and how they work together.
The demonstration will be followed by a 20-minute live Q&A, giving you the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about the tools and workflows most relevant to your work.
