The venue for the Conference is the University of Cairo, and the scientific program will take place during 5-8 March, 2006. This event provides a forum for fostering scientific exchange and collaboration. All interested chemists are encouraged to attend and contribute to the program. The conference will focus on new and emerging trends in chemistry. Original relevant aspects of biological, medicinal, stereochemistry, natural products and industrial chemistry will be featured in a program which seeks to cater to a wide range of interests in contemporary chemistry and offers a visionary perspective on future challenges and opportunities in the field. Session on "Femtosecond chemistry" and "H-bond structures and dynamics" Invited international lectures confirmed so far are: G. Gerber (Wuerzburg) Analysis and optimal control of chemical reactions H. Kauffmann (Vienna) Applications to polymers J.-L. Martin (Paris) Applications to bio-molecules A.D. Bandrauk (Sherbrook) Quantum theory for femto- and attosecond chemistry O. Khn ( Berlin) Hydrogen bond dynamics: from gas to condensed phase K. Takatsuka (Tokyo) Quantum electron dynamics in hydrogen bonds Workshops A one-day workshop will be conducted in each of the following areas: Thermal Analysis Mass Spectrometry Organized by Prof. Nour El-Dein Tawfik NMR Techniques Organized by Prof. Dr. Ahmed Farag The registration in any of these workshops should be indicated in the conference application form. Conference registration entitles applicants to a 50% discount in the workshop registration fee. Informal Tutorial A pre-conference tutorial/workshop will be held on the "Simulation of wave packet dynamics on computer". It will address topics such as laser pulse control and some other theoretical aspects. The workshop will be delivered by Professor J. Manz, Professor O. Khn and Mohamed Shibl of the Free University Berlin, Germany. duration: 6 hrs. Accommodation Hotel reservation for participants will be available on request in various areas and rates, in addition to a limited number of rooms in the University Guesthouse.
