Subject: 10.07.25 Canadian Symposium on Theoretical Chemistry, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Dear Colleagues,

Registration and abstract submission are now open for the 17th Canadian Symposium on 
Theoretical Chemistry (CSTC) to be held in Edmonton, Alberta from July 25 to 30, 2010. Held 
every three years, the CSTC is an international meeting that brings together theoretical chemists
from across Canada and around the world. Early bird registration is available until May 1, 2010 
and abstract submission is available until June 30, 2010. See the conference website 
(www.cstc2010.ca) for further details. 

Beginning with an opening reception on Sunday evening (July 25), the symposium consists of 
40 min invited talks given Monday through Friday. Two poster sessions for contributed abstracts 
and a banquet held on Thursday evening complete the format. The current lists of confirmed 
invited speakers and session chairs are available below. The symposium is intended to cover 
the full scope of theoretical chemistry, including electronic structure methods, chemical 
dynamics, and statistical mechanics, with a particular focus on recent theoretical and 
methodological advances. Information regarding the symposium including the program, a list 
of invited speakers, registration, abstract submission, accommodation, travel, and the 
conference history, is posted on the conference website (www.cstc2010.ca). 

If you have any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact 
any member of the organizing committee. We look forward to seeing you in Edmonton this 
summer!

Sincerely,

The organizing committee of the 17th Canadian Theoretical Chemistry Conference:
