Lignin is a renewable, abundant natural polymer with promising applications for nanomaterials; however, owing to its intrinsic complex architecture current modeling efforts are insufficiently efficient, limiting current efforts for the rapid design of lignin-based materials. Here we present and highlight on-going efforts to devise minimalistic coarse-grained models of lignin and the challenges that remain.
