6th MERCURY CONFERENCE ON COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY
http://mars.hamilton.edu/conference/current/about.html
College in Clinton, NY, from Sunday July 29 - Tuesday July 31, 2007.
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
We are pleased to announce the sixth national conference devoted solely to
undergraduates who are working on research projects in computational
chemistry, to be held at Hamilton College in Clinton, NY, from
Sunday July 29 - Tuesday July 31, 2007. This conference is a great
opportunity for undergraduates to learn about the breadth of research
in computational chemistry, particularly in interdisciplinary topics,
and to discuss their work with other undergraduate computational chemists
as well as some leaders in the field. For faculty, this conference will
be an opportunity to generate a network of computational chemists who
work with undergraduates, fostering collaboration and developing a sense
of community in the field.
The talks will be split between Monday and Tuesday, with undergraduate
poster sessions taking place on one or both days.
Registration is $210 per faculty member, $105 per faculty guest, and
$105 per undergraduate, and includes:
* Two nights accommodation in college housing;
* All meals, including a barbecue dinner on Sunday, July 29;
* A social activity on Monday and Tuesday nights.
Costs for the conference are being kept low due to generous financial
assistance from Hamilton College and SGI.
Registration materials are due by July 16th, and the deadline for poster
abstract submission is July 16th.
Undergraduates are strongly encouraged to submit posters.
This conference is the sixth organized by the MERCURY high performance
computer center (Molecular Educational Research Consortium in
Undergraduate computational chemistRY), a consortium created by multiple
undergraduate institutions with additional funding from NSF. One of the
aims of our consortium is to increase the visibility of faculty working
at predominantly undergraduate institutions with undergraduates. We look
forward to seeing you and your students at Hamilton in the summer!
