Schrödinger is a very powerful software suite used for computational chemistry and molecular modeling. This event is a fantastic opportunity for anyone in our department to enhance their skill set. Please emphasize the importance of this event and encourage as many people as possible to register. Depending on the level of interest, we may consider increasing the number of tokens used to access various Schrödinger tools and features.
