Deep Learning and LLM in Cheminformatics
About this event
The International Workshop on Open Molecular Informatics is dedicated to solving practical problems in the field through discussions and hackathons in an informal setting.
This year’s workshop will be dedicated to deep learning and large language models (LLM) in cheminformatics.
We will gather colleagues from open-source projects in molecular informatics at Schloss Korb, which is beautifully located in the Tyrolean mountains close to Bolzano. We will start on Monday evening (24. May 2027), which gives you time to travel to Schloss Korb (https://www.schloss-hotel-korb.com/) at the start of the week. The symposium will end with breakfast on Friday morning. We will fill the remaining time with hackathons, discussions, hiking and fun.
Details of the workshop
The scientific program will take place over three days and will start at 9.00 on Tuesday and end at ca. 18.30 on Thursday. You should plan to arrive on Monday before 19:00 (there is a reception :)) and depart on Friday morning after breakfast. The workshop, lunches and dinners will take place at Hotel Schloss Korb. The language of the workshop is English.
The IWOMI is organised as an unconference. The content and the hackathon sessions are decided by the participants before and during the workshop. Please be prepared for a week of activity rather than passive consumption of talks 🙂
