It has been a busy month at Telluride Science with three winter workshops. March kicked off with Phase Separation in Biology and Disease from March 4-8 which explores phase separation, a process crucial for organizing biomolecules in cells, influencing various biological functions and processes, including gene expression and cell signaling. By examining relationships between phase separation and biological function, genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of disease, and therapeutic strategies, the workshop advances our understanding of how phase separation contributes to human diseases and explores potential treatments.
Starting next week, we welcome a different group of scientists to town for Platinum Group Metal and Platinum Group Metal-free Electrocatalysts: Oxygen and Hydrogen Evolution Catalysis from March 18-22. This workshop focuses on advancing electrochemical energy conversion systems, crucial for reducing reliance on fossil fuels and promoting renewable energy to fight climate change. Specifically, it aims to foster discussions on catalysts for oxygen and hydrogen evolution, addressing gaps in research and exploring mechanisms, stability, and integration with other components.
March workshops wrap up March 25-29, shifting gears from catalysis to Quantum Computing for Quantum Chemistry, Molecular Dynamics, and Beyond. Experts from more than 10 different universities, three national labs, and seven different companies including Google Quantum AI and IBM Quantum will brainstorm methods to create new algorithms to help solve complex problems in molecular physics.
Scientists have enjoyed brainstorming in the classroom (the Ah Haa School Launch pad), as well as continuing the conversations on the chairlifts and around town. We are excited to host the winter 2025 workshops at the Depot!
