[DFTB-Plus-User] DFTB+ School 15th to 19 of June 2026

[Benjamin Hourahine]

The 2026 CECAM and Psi-k School for the DFTB+ code will be at the Daresbury CECAM-UK node.

Registration deadline: May 4, 2026

Details and registration are available at:
https://www.cecam.org/workshop-details/daresbury-dftb-school-1550

The main objectives of this event are to 1) Provide a “hands-on” driven introduction to the main features of DFTB+, both for new and advanced users, with associated on-line training material for later reference. 2) Introduce the basic DFTB theory, providing recordings of the material for later viewing after the school. 3) Provide training both with existing models with wide general coverage of chemical elements (baseline parameters and xTB) and how to accurately parameterizing models for new new systems. 4) For existing users provide direct opportunities to discuss their work, research requirements and current challenges with several of the main developers of DFTB+. 5) Provide an introduction to the software engineering and code structure neccessary for participants to begin developing their own extensions to this tool.

Looking forward to seeing you in Daresbury!

The DFTB+ developers
