======= Quickstep to the Future, 25 Years of CP2K ====== ===== Celebrating Innovations in Atomistic Simulations ===== Since its first steps in June 2001, CP2K has grown into a widely used open-source package for atomistic simulations of molecules, interfaces, and solid-state systems, reaching more than 2000 citations per year. From ab initio molecular dynamics to large-scale condensed phase simulations, and from hybrid functional calculations to enhanced sampling, CP2K has brought advantages to many communities. To mark the 25th anniversary of CP2K, this three-day workshop will bring together developers and users to showcase current capabilities and scientific applications, exchange knowledge, and discuss priorities for the next development steps. The event will offer a unique opportunity for users, developers, and contributors to interact closely, fostering collaboration and shaping the code’s trajectory for the next 25 years. CP2K supports a wide range of atomistic simulation methods, including density functional theory (DFT), wavefunction-based approaches, classical force fields, and hybrid QM/MM schemes. Its features cover structure optimization, molecular dynamics, excited-state calculations, and enhanced sampling techniques, all designed for efficient parallel performance on modern computing architectures. {{:events:cp2k_25_poster_temp_list.1.png?900|}} Use this [[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScu9Fmpw_EEl-APxBG38a1Wm1iDIwFnpg5aoETo5SUhNoodqg/viewform?usp=header/cp2k|LINK]] for the registration to the workshop No participation fee is requested
