WEBINAR: Building Reliable Retrieval for AI Agents

A practice-oriented webinar on how RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) works, what agentic search is, different retrieval strategies, and how to choose tools that align with your business goals will be organized by AI Factory Austria AI:AT on 20 May 2026.

Many enterprises have started integrating AI agents into their workflows. But the retrieval infrastructure powering these agents - vector search, RAG pipelines, search APIs - was designed for a simpler era. As agents take on complex research tasks across thousands of documents, teams are hitting the same walls: lost context, compounding hallucinations, and costs that spiral out of control at scale.

This workshop gives technical teams a clear-eyed view of what retrieval approaches currently exist, how they differ, their advantages and disadvantages, and what’s emerging. This webinar, grounded in real production experience, especially targets technical leads, developers, and everybody who wants to learn about modern retrieval techniques.

WEBINAR: Driving Forces in Biomolecular Condensates from Atomistic Simulations of Model Peptides

An online seminar on model peptide simulations will be organized by the European Center of Excellence for Computational Biomolecular Research, BioExcel, on 12 May 2026.

Short peptides serve as important models for more complex systems. Their study has provided insights into fundamental folding processes, such as alpha-helix nucleation and hairpin formation, as well as the microscopic origins of internal friction. Additionally, short peptides are valuable benchmarks for calibrating modern force fields and have been widely used in recent optimization efforts.

The webinar will focus on phase separation. Using peptide models, it will be hypothesized that phase separation is an emergent property determined by composition, even in the absence of a polypeptide chain. Multivalency and patterning effects will be tested. Atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of saturated solutions of individual amino acids and their mixtures, in stoichiometries comparable to those of phase-separating low complexity domains, will be utilized.

Introduction to Unreal Engine for Science

An online 3 half-day training on the Unreal Engine and its use in science will be organized by the Jülich Supercomputing Center (Forschungszentrum Jülich) on 11-15 May 2026.

The Unreal Engine is one of the state-of-the-art 3D engines, which is mainly used for game development. In recent years, however, its use in industry and science has been steadily increasing, which is further supported by new features from the producer Epic Games.

The course gives a basic introduction to the major functions when using the Unreal Editor and Visual Studio, offers tips and tricks for scientific use, and deepens the acquired knowledge by using and extending an example application. The course will cover the difference between Blueprints and C++ and when to use which one, and also focus on the use of third party-tools and the different possibilities of code management.
