A complete learning pathway
From molecular structure to validated scientific insight
The workshop is designed for students and researchers who want a coherent, hands-on route through modern computational biophysics. Sessions combine scientific foundations, guided demonstrations, practical exercises, analysis workflows, and integrated project work.
Built for emerging researchers
Suitable for students and researchers in biology, biophysics, chemistry, physics, biotechnology, and related fields.
Integrated computational workflow
Move from preparation and modeling to simulation, analysis, visualization, and scientific communication.
On campus at Cairo University
Hosted at the Biophysics Department, Faculty of Science, Cairo University.

What participants will practice
Scientific reasoning, not just software operation
The workshop emphasizes why each computational decision is made, how results should be checked, and how in silico findings can connect to instrumentation and wet-lab validation.
- Prepare reproducible molecular systems and document assumptions.
- Interpret docking, simulation, and free-energy outputs critically.
- Create publication-ready analyses and scientific visualizations.
- Connect computational predictions with experimental strategy.
