CCL: April 25th, 2006 - OASys deadline for "Emerging Technologies in Computational Chemistry" Award Symposium - ACS San Francisco



2006 Symposium on Emerging Technologies in Computational Chemistry

$1,000 prize to be awarded at the ACS national meeting, San Francisco, CA.

The Computers in Chemistry Division (COMP) of the ACS will hold the seventh annual Symposium on Emerging Technologies in Computational Chemistry at the American Chemical Society National Meeting, San Francisco, CA, September 10-14, 2006.  The objective of the symposium is to stimulate, reward, and publicize methodological advances in computational chemistry.

The talks will be evaluated by a Panel of Experts on the quality of the presentation, and the impact that the research will have on the future of computational chemistry and allied sciences. The symposium is ideal for presenting your latest and best research on new techniques, applications and software development.

Schrodinger, Inc., sponsors a $1,000 prize for the best talk at the symposium.

All are invited to participate. To participate, it is necessary to submit a regular short ACS abstract via http://oasys.acs.org/ . It is also necessary to also email a long (~1000-word) abstract to the organizer. The talks must be original and not be repeats of talks at other ACS symposia. The long abstracts will be evaluated, and those individuals selected for an oral presentation at the symposium will be notified. Applications for the Emerging Technologies Symposium that cannot be accepted will be rescheduled in one of the other COMP sessions at the meeting.

Inquiries should sent to:
