Having focused on simple model systems for two decades, molecular simulations of lipid membranes have recently started exploring more complex compositions and geometries, in an attempt to better account for the immense complexity of biological systems. What challenges lie ahead for molecular simulations of biological membranes? Which problems need to be solved during the next decade to make progress in this field? These questions are the focus of the CECAM workshop we are organizing.
