Felix and Sebastian organised together with Fabrice Detrez (Paris), Andrea Giuntoli (Groningen), Matej Praprotnik (Ljubljana), and Maxime Vassaux (Rennes) the symposium “Multiscale simulations of polymers and polymer composites” at the 11th International Conference on Multiscale Materials Modeling (MMM 11) in Prague. It was a pleasure to welcome 30 speakers, including 5 keynote lecturers, addressing various aspects of polymer and polymer composite simulations across different time and length scales. In addition, there were many occasions for highly fruitful scientific exchange. Overall, MMM 11 was a great experience and benefited a lot from the excellent local organisation team.

Aside from the scientific part, we had the chance to explore the exciting capital of the Czech Republic together with its traditional cuisine and beer culture. A specific highlight was certainly our joint visit of an excellent performance of Verdi’s Otello in the State Opera. We thank all co-organisers for this outstanding scientific and personal experience in Prague!
