The collaborative computational projects for biomolecular and condensed matter simulation, CCPBioSim and CCP5, are holding a sixth international conference on the theme of multiscale modelling in Manchester, following on from previous events held in Manchester in 2014, 2016 and 2018, online in 2021 and hybrid in 2023.

The three-day event will bring together leading researchers from biological and materials chemistry to discuss topics of common interest across the spectrum of electronic structure, atomistic and mesoscopic scales and to address the current and future challenges posed by multiscale modelling.
