Telluride, Colorado: Tuesday July 7th to Saturday July 11th 2026
Organisers: Karl Heinz Hoffmann, Markus Pflaum, Christian Schön, David Wales
The workshop will start on Tuesday morning and run for five days, including Saturday.
Contributions are invited on all aspects of energy landscape research, covering exploration methodology from global optimisation, thermodynamic sampling, and rare events. One particular aim is to explore the connections between the topological and geometric properties of molecular landscapes, condensed matter, and the solution spaces for machine learning, self-consistent fields, and quantum computing.

With this new registration system, the process of selecting lodging is different than it has been in the past. After you register, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to request lodging through Telluride Science (Mountainside Inn, Bear Creek Lodge, or Manitou Inn - most affordable lodging options) along with information and discount codes to obtain lodging on one's own through additional lodging partners.
The $100 early bird discount only applies to lodging acquired through Telluride Science. Our early bird deadline is January 31st. The reason for the early bird deadline is so we can all secure the most affordable lodging options before they are reserved by the general public.
Please contact theory-sec@ch.cam.ac.uk with any enquiries.
The schedule will appear here in due course.
