Dear Colleague:

We are pleased to announce the decennial Conference on Current Trends in

Computational Chemistry (CCTCC). This year, the meeting organized
annually by Jackson State University will be held at Jackson Hilton
Hotel, Jackson, Mississippi on November 1-3, 2001. The 10th CCTCC will
cover all areas of computational chemistry as well as quantum chemistry.

The format consists of a series of plenary lectures and poster
presentations (Thursday 2pm – Saturday 7pm) covering applications as
well as theory.  Within two and a half days we will accommodate 32 talks

of the previous CCTCC speakers as well as three poster sessions. The
scope of the talks will be different from the previous meetings. We have

asked invited speakers to cover the progress of their research areas
over the last decade. As usual, poster presentations will cover results
of current research activities.

I am also glad to inform you, that fourteen invited speakers contributed

their reviews to a special “Perspectives on a Decade of Trends in
Computational Chemistry” issue of THEOCHEM. This issue will appear in
October 2001, and will be distributed among all registered participants.

We are planning to publish extended abstracts (up to four pages each) of

all invited talks and poster presentations. Original scientific
contributions will be published in a special issue of the Journal of
Molecular Structure (THEOCHEM).  Manuscripts for inclusion in the
special issue should be submitted in triplicate upon arrival at the
registration desk.  Submitted papers will be subject to the journal’s
standard referee procedures.

The detail information, registration forms and deadlines are available
at
the WebPage:  http://ccmsi.jsums.edu/cctcc/

Sincerely,

Jerzy Leszczynski
Chairman of the Organizing Committee
