Dear Julia community
Today at JuliaCon we will organise a discussion and brainstorming session centred around the current ecosystem of first-principle atomistic modelling in Julia. In particular we want to discuss the development of interface packages like [AtomsBase](https://github.com/JuliaMolSim/AtomsBase.jl) and what can be done to improve package integration across the existing ecosystem.
So if you are interested in applications in quantum chemistry, electronic structure theory, first-principle materials simulations, interatomic potentials, molecular dynamics please come along.
Time: 5pm (after the Wolfram Keynote)
Location: 32-D463 (Star)
See you there!

The atomistic simulation discussion takes place in 32-124.
