This year's workshop will take place virtually between Monday, July 27th and Sunday, August 9th, 2026. We would very much appreciate your help in letting your colleagues and students know about this opportunity. A flyer announcing the workshop is attached below. This year's summer workshop will focus on the basics of building virtual tissue models modeling using CompuCell3D, as well as advanced features and capabilities of the CompuCell3D software. A three-day model-building Hackathon will be hosted the weekend after the workshop, from Friday August 8th to Sunday August 10th. Workshop attendees will work in teams to build a functioning model of their problem of interest with instructor support. Workshop attendance is required for admission to the hackathon. Attendees of previous workshops may apply to attend only the hackathon. If you are already a proficient CompuCell3D user and would like to lead a project or assist with the hackathon, please contact us directly to discuss. Summer school attendance guarantees admission to the Model-Building Hackathon. The Hackathon organizers will help group attendees by topic of interest. Experienced modelers will be embedded within each group. Workshop instructors will be available to assist Hackathon participants throughout the three-day session. Everyone will leave with a functioning core model that they can further customize. === Important Dates: === * '''July 27 – July 31:''' Multicelluar Virtual Tissue Modeling Workshop * '''August 3 – 5:''' Advanced Topics in CompuCell3D * '''August 7 – 9:''' CompuCell3D Model-Building Hackathon * To get a sense for previous workshop content, you can view the entire set of !YouTube videos for the '''2025''' workshop [[https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmj-KAP6Sc2TFwSiY82sGQBUlA0pYAy5I&si=8nSZm-6teQdfXYpc|here]]. * Schedule of topics and events coming soon! ---- == Page Index == * [[#Contact|Registration and Contacts]] * [[#Pre-workshop|Pre-workshop Events]] * [[#Python|Intro to Python Class (optional)]] * [[#CC3D|Tissue Modeling with CompuCell3D]] * [[#Hack|Model-Building Hackathon]] * [[#Announcement|Class Announcement, fliers, etc.]] * [[#RelatedWorkshops|Related Workshops]] * [[#Support|Supported by]] ---- <> == Registration and Contacts: == '''Registration for the 2026 CompuCell3D Summer Workshop is now open at: [[https://tinyurl.com/CC3D2026]] ''' Please apply by June 1st, 2026 for full consideration.
