 So I think, you know, well, if maybe a few other people will be straggling in but we can get started To begin my colleagues and I would like to welcome you all to the first open forest field consortium workshop We're looking forward to a couple of days of having fun talking about science and technology and Maybe getting a little sign for those of you who are coming from places that are a little chillier The goals I think are summarized here I think our main goal is just to gather as many project participants together as possible so we can get to know each other Interact in person and talk science We're in particular interested in talking science with our pharmaceutical partners Letting them know the directions we're taking and getting your feedback This is also an opportunity to let you know what we're thinking about for the first year of the project Of course, this has been discussed a fair amount already So we're talking about 2019 Beyond and also tomorrow afternoon folks who are interested will have the opportunity to make first use of the Prototypical open-force field toolkit and see how that's developing In order to do this. Well, we have a pretty busy two-day agenda I won't go over it in detail. But as you probably know, it's available online. I also put some printouts of it in back For those of you who are coming in via zoom Just emailed out the meeting ID for tomorrow's session It's separate from today's because we're going to try to record the sessions and I want to make sure they don't The second one doesn't clobber the first one. So we're going to start off this morning Michael shirts We'll give an overview of what we see as the roadmap for developing of open-force field And then we'll get into one hour talks about the science various aspects of the project that Michael will have introduced There'll be a break in the middle where we can go back and get some coffee and lunch Then we'll have lunch At the end of the morning sessions I'm going to turn off the zoom because that's mostly for folks in Europe where it'll be getting late and it would be difficult to involve In the discussions anyway this way in the afternoons We'll have breakouts and the way those will be structured is first of all Well, we'll get together after lunch and we'll say what do we want the breakout sessions to be we want to have to running in parallel So we have some ideas what the topics may be but we'll look for whether people want to do something perhaps a little bit different We'll run two breakout sessions one maybe back there and the other one over here Come back together and then have another two. So it'll be a lot of time for discussion and we'll reconvene at the end Well, okay, I think skip to slide I'm not very quick at changing slides on here But okay, but on tomorrow we'll have a similar structure But maybe specials that in the afternoon in place of one of the breakouts Jeff Wagner who is there Will as an open force field software scientist For those who are interested will take you through installation of the toolkit either on your own laptop or on a remote computer that you have access to Show you how to install it Parameterize a molecule and run an initial simulation the requirement for that is basically a laptop or remote computer running Linux Or macOS There should be a good amount of time for discussion of each talk because you've allotted an hour for each And some of them may not you know are not going to take that whole time But we'd encourage you along the way if you have additional topics of interest or questions to drop them into the appropriate Slap channels, which are listed on the printed agenda and also we mentioned at the beginning of each talk Well, of course if you want to just write notes and bring them to the breakout sessions That's also fine, but the slack is a way of capturing the interests And then there'll be time to discuss those and other topics during the afternoons So just to let you know we had a really good registration there total of 44 people who registered 34 are in principle are here in person. I'm not sure I see 34 right now. I know a few people are still struggling in We have 17 people who registered who are from industry and 27 who are academic I'm you guess you all found the name tags on the back, but we thought those would be useful for getting to know each other Um, I Know I need to back Somebody quick about getting out of oh here. That's okay. Oh That was not what I intended Sorry about that Okay, I think yeah, I think I need to bring it up and then mean of screen sharing so You think I miss the screen sharing somewhere. Yeah Where is it back to meeting? Right, okay, so thanks Except the one I lost it Right, no, but which one do I I can't see which one. No, this is the one I want. Yeah, sorry Okay, great in terms of the practicalities, so we're only gonna be meeting in this room there aren't breakout rooms nearby There's Wi-Fi here. You should be able to get in using the UCSD guest network after a short delay In terms of the zoom as I mentioned before it's only gonna be pre-launch So we will capture the scientific talks for the folks in Europe as I mentioned we will be trying to record these Hopefully it's recording now, but if I guess I want to know right now if there's anybody who would rather not have it Recorded for any reason so that we can stop it Okay, hearing no disagreement will continue and also I put the date to meeting ID up here But that's also I emailed it around and you can contact me if you need anything for that and the slides for those of you Who are interested will be made available after the after the meeting terms of food will have breakfast Breaks and lunch here at the table and back. Hey and There's a dinner this evening a number as I think you all know which is that place called the rock bottom brewery the Address is in the printed agenda and also online I think so there's a choice of several entrees you'll be able to have including a vegetarian one Just let you know it should be around thirty five forty dollars a person Hope that's fine with you If you have changed your plans relative to what you said when you registered in terms of the dinner Please let me know because then I can let the restaurant know to increase or decrease the expected number of people And what to get over there basically some of us have cars will probably use a combination of cars and uber It's not very far away Um If you need any help during the workshop if any questions that arise feel free to email me I won't be monitoring email very closely. You can text Somebody turned on Okay, uh-huh, we know who you are Okay, anyway, you can contact me if you need any help and also I want to thank postdocs in my lab Who helped direct some of you in and we'll be around and we'll be able to help with local arrangements So if I could just ask Edo Is over there Katie What do you guys stand up to people actually see you just for a second? Thanks So Edo Ben Shalom, Katie Kellett, Dave Sloka, we're in Michael Schauperl. So thank you so much I Think the other thing I wanted to do was that so you're gonna see all the PI stand-ups or anybody who doesn't know Us is gonna see us because we'll be giving talks, but I wanted to invite the Industrial members of the advisory board to stand up and introduce themselves briefly to say who they are and what their affiliation is If that's okay, maybe just starting from the front and working back. Oh, you know what? We have microphones. Do you want to say that again? So I'm Albert Okay, I'm Albert Ogobi. I'm at Gen Tech in South San Francisco I'm not on the advisory board because I'm participating for Russia and Russia has a different member Okay on the advisory board Hi, I'm Arjun Nurein and I'm with our computational chemist with Vertex Somebody in Thank you Okay, my name is Ian Craig and I'm a computational chemist at BSF in Germany I'll pass over to Peter I'm Peter Infeldt. I'm a principal scientist at BSF as well in Germany. I've been there for a little while So About Walters relay therapeutics. I'm Katerina Meyer. I'm a computational chemist at Bayer in Germany Might be everybody who's here. I don't know if the folks on zoom Want to speak up briefly and introduce yourselves? I see Thomas. I see you listed there I don't know if there are any other advisory members online right now It's a little but please feel free to unmute yourselves and introduce yourselves Hi, good morning, this is Thomas Fox. I'm with Boering Engelheim here in Germany. Thank you Thank you. Hi, Dory. Does anybody else want to pipe up? Okay, they're shy. Okay. Well, thanks. We're really glad to have you before we get started I think Mike do you want to come up and get yourself set in the meantime?
