2008 Symposium on Emerging Technologies in Computational Chemistry
American Chemical Society National Meeting, Philadelphia
Aug. 17-21 2008

$1,000 prize to be awarded at the ACS national meeting, Philadelphia, PA.

The Computers in Chemistry Division (COMP) of the ACS will hold the annual
Symposium on Emerging Technologies in Computational Chemistry at the
American Chemical Society National Meeting, Philadelphia, PA, Aug. 17-21
2008. The objective of the symposium is to stimulate, reward, and publicize
methodological advances in computational chemistry.

The talks will be evaluated at the meeting 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 <a href="http://oasys.acs.org/" target="_blank">http://oasys.acs.org/</a> . It is also necessary
to also email a longer (~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.

Long abstracts must be sent by e-mail to

carlos.simmerling-at-gmail.com

Please use a subject of &quot;ACS Emerging Tech Abstract&quot;.
THE LONG ABSTRACT MUST BE SENT BY 5PM EASTERN TIME ON FRIDAY, MARCH 7, 2008.

The short abstract must be submitted to OASYS by the normal deadline of
March 17, 2008.

You will receive a confirmation of receipt of your application via email.
Please contact the organizer immediately if you do not receive confirmation
by March 10.
