About#
You are looking at the home page (https://cs.mpsd.mpg.de) of the Research Group on Computational Science at the Max Planck Institute for Structure and Dynamics of Matter in Hamburg, Germany.
Mission#
Research computational methods in the context of scientific discovery, and support scientists in computational matters.
Our research activity is in the area of scientific computation, including software engineering for science, workflows for data analysis, visualisation, and computer simulation methodology. Our work is driven by collaboration with domain specialists - please get in touch to explore options.
We provide High Performance Computing facilities, support and long-term collaboration.
