[gmx-users] Conference "Frontiers in Biomolecular Simulation"
We are proud to announce the 495. Wilhelm und Else Heraeus-Seminar "Frontiers in Biomolecular Simulation" to take place on Jan. 22.-25. 2012 at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef in Germany. The conference is sponsored by the Heraeus-Foundation, Germany's premier private organisation for the advancement of physics. The conference will deal with the topics of Coarse Grained Models and Methods, Simulating Membranes and Membrane Proteins, Large Scale Quantum Processes and Multiscale and Large Scale Biomolecular Simulation. We are happy to announce that more than 20 distinguished international speakers are committed to make this an intimate, highly productive meeting. Please refer to: http://www.rz.uni-karlsruhe.de/~cd186/ for more information. At the moment, we are encouraging scientists to apply for ca. 30 attendee slots at the meeting which will be filled until Oct. 30th. The conference is free to attend and includes food&lodging, participants only have to cover their own travel costs. We expect slots to fill up very quickly, so please register early. We especially encourage junior group leaders and scientists beginning work in the field of Biomolecular Simulation to attend and present posters on their recent work.

Re: [gmx-users] OPLS and RB parameters in GROMACS
Dear Sulatha, these are probably the more recent parameters from Price, M. L. P., D. Ostrovsky, and W. L. Jorgensen. 2001.
