Current list of lecturers and lecture titles
(check the website frequently for updates!)
--------------------------------------------

* Standard lecture: 30 minutes (25 minutes talk, 5 minutes for questions)

    # Lucas Visscher: Implementation and Applications of Relativistic 
                      Coupled Cluster Theory.

* Pedagogical lecture: 45 minutes: The lecture material (PPTs, PDF) must 
  be at a level suitable for final year undergraduate students and the 
  audience may interrupt the speakers. There should be no jargon or 
  unexplained acronyms. Limited numbers of slots available.

    # Erkki Brandas: Complex Scaling Method - Interpretations, Theory
                     and Results.

* Frontier lecture: 60 minutes: 30 minutes invited talk immediately 
  followed by 30 minutes of audience discussion. The lecture material 
  should be of a pedagogic level and submitted by August 1st 2018 for 
  distribution to the Q.I. Frontiers audience. Limited numbers of slots 
  available.

    # Paul Ayers: New Flexible Wavefunction Forms for Quantum Chemistry
