Michele Parrinello, the father of many methods that have paved the way to understanding some of matter’s deepest secrets, has just turned 80. A few days after his birthday, he was at ICTP—of whose community he is a cherished member—to attend the conference “Frontiers in Atomistic Simulations: From Physics to Chemistry and Biology,” surrounded by a large community of researchers, many of whom have been his collaborators.

In this interview, he talks about his life’s work, which has influenced and inspired many scientists around the world.
