Call for papers / Washington



Hi,
 The American Chemical Society's Computers in Chemistry Division (COMP)
 is organizing a new type of symposium at the Washington, DC, national
 meeting, August 20-24, 2000.  A $1000 will be awarded to the best oral
 paper presented at the Emerging Technologies Symposium.
 The papers will be evaluated based on the impact the research will have
 on the future of computational chemistry and allied sciences.
 To participate, e-mail a 1000-word abstract to me as soon as possible, but
 no later than April 1, 2000.
 The abstract must be in text-only or MS Word.  These long abstracts will
 be reviewed by a panel of experts.  The best contributions will be
 selected for oral presentations at the meeting in Washington.  The
 remaining contributions will be presented at a special evening poster
 session.
 It is essential that you ALSO submit a short regular ACS abstract to the
 web-based system at http://www.acs.org/meetings/ by April 12.
 At the meeting, the oral presentations will be judged by the panel of
 experts, and the winner of the $1000 prize will be selected and
 awarded following the talks.
 Sincerely,
 Donald B. Boyd, Ph.D.
