理论与计算化学国际会议TACC2008
The International Conference on The Theory and Applications of Computational Chemistry in 2008 (TACC2008)
To be held September 23-27, 2008, Shanghai, China
Website: http://tacc2008.sjtu.edu.cn/
Since the first applications of computers in chemistry in the early 1960's, computational chemistry has evolved today to be at the vanguard of the most advances in chemistry, material science, physics, geology, biology and medicine. Its impact in chemistry can be noted from the fact that within four decades of existence, five of the top ten most highly cited publications in 125 years of JACS are related to computational chemistry. Apart from technical advances in computers and algorithms, the phenomenal impact of computational chemistry is due to the dedicated and sustained efforts of many individuals. In this regard, we felt that it would be befitting to organize a symposium Theory and Applications of Computational Chemistry (TACC) in 2008 gathering a large number of the world's leading experts in computational chemistry. This event follows the previous successful 2004 TACC conference in Korea.
A significant number of leading scientists have been invited to give preliminary talks. There will also be many parallel sessions and poster presentations to allow conference participants to present their research works.
Call For Contributions
Abstracts for contributed talks/posters are welcomed in any area of computational and theoretical chemistry. The deadline for all contributions is January15 to February 15, 2008. All abstracts will be reviewed, and the authors will be informed about the status of their presentation around March 15 to May. 15, 2008. Please send your abstract to tacc2008@gmail.com or dqwei@sjtu.edu.cn
