Introduction:

 The Girona Seminars have been taken place in the historic town of Girona
 every two years since back to 1993, with the aim of bringing together, in
 a beautiful environment and in an informal and friendly atmosphere, young
 and senior scientists.

 We have decided to continue next year the organization of the Girona Seminars
 that started in 1993 and continued until 2008 with the VIII edition. We are
 now starting the organization of the IX Girona Seminar that will be held at
 the Universitat de Girona from July 5th until July 8th 2010 and will be 
 dedicated to Prof. Dr. Ramon Carbo-Dorca on occasion of his 70th birthday.

 The aim of the conference is to give the audience an impression of the recent
 developments and applications of quantum chemistry for the analysis of the
 electron density, density matrices, and density functional theory. This will
 be the main subject, although, following the philosophy of the previous
 Girona Seminars, other aspects such as theoretical chemistry, quantum
 chemistry, mathematical chemistry, molecular similarity, molecular properties,
 nature of the chemical bond, and quantitative structure-property
 relationships will be also welcome.

 More details regarding pre-registration, accomodation, conference site
 and other matters, will be found on our WWW site:

 We would like to encourage all of you to join us in the forthcoming
 Girona Seminar. A limited number of short oral scientific contributions
 are still available for participants and in particular young researchers.
 
 We look forward to seeing you in Girona.

 Sincerely,
