 We are pleased to announce the conference on Theory and Applications of
 Computational
 Chemistry (TACC2016), which will be held on the campus of the University of
 Washington in
 Seattle, USA from August 28 - September 2, 2016 (http://www.tacc2016.org).
 TACC2016 will
 convene leading researchers in theoretical and computational chemistry and
 allied disciplines to
 present and discuss forefront research in the development and application of
 chemical theory and
 computation. A broad range of fundamental and applied topics in chemistry,
 biochemistry, and
 materials science will be covered, including a special focus on computational
 approaches that
 bridge the gap between atomistic simulations and mesoscale phenomena, and that
 exploit
 advanced computing and informatics technologies to push the frontiers of the
 field. The program
 will include keynote, plenary and parallel invited lectures, with contributed
 presentations selected
 > from among the abstracts submitted to the conference.
 The program will include four keynote lectures:
 D. A. Baker (UW), E. A. Carter (Princeton U), G. Galli (U Chicago), and G. A.
 Voth (U Chicago);
