WATOC 2017 @ GASTEIG Cultural Center
Aug 27 – Sep 1 all-day
WATOC 2017 @ GASTEIG Cultural Center | München | Bayern | Germany

The 11th Triennial Congress of the World Association of Theoretical and Computational Chemists will be organised by Prof. Dr. Christian Ochsenfeld (Department of Chemistry, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, LMU, München).

It will take place from 27 August to 1 September, 2017 in Munich, Germany.

WATOC is the largest theoretical and computational conference worldwide and we expect about 1500 participants from all over the world. There will be more than 200 invited lectures, many contributed talks and posters covering a wide variety of cutting edge research topics ranging from method developments to applications, all pushing the limits of modern theoretical and computational chemistry, biochemistry, nanotechnology, and materials sciences.

Both the international advisory committee and the local scientific committee have been set up (www.watoc2017.com) and plenary and invited speakers will soon be selected.

The WATOC2017 will be held in the city center of Munich with both the plenary and parallel sessions under one roof. Munich is located centrally in Europe with the second largest airport (MUC) in Germany offering many direct international and national flights. At the same time, Munich offers safe and easy public transportation facilities.

Besides great science, Munich and its surroundings offer fascinating possibilities for both cultural and outdoor activities.

We hope that you will be able to join us in celebrating the WATOC2017 in Munich – please do subscribe early to the mailing list (http://www.watoc2017.com/newsletter.html) so you can keep posted.

ESCB2, Oviedo-ES
Sep 3 – Sep 7 all-day

After the success of the first edition of the European Symposium on Chemical Bonding, that took place in Rouen in 2016, it is our pleasure to inform you that the second edition of this series will be held in Oviedo, Spain, from September 3 to September 7, 2018.

Following the spirit of the ESCB1, the conference will be devoted to showing new developments as well as relevant applications in the field of chemical bonding. Besides a set of invited lectures by leaders in the field, we expect to gather a number of younger researchers, for whom we plan to offer shorter oral communications.

In keeping with the tradition of ESCB1, a practical school on methods, applications and computational tecniques, this time focused on quantum chemical topology tools in chemical bonding will take place before the beginning of the meeting, from September 2 to September 4. We expect younger students interested in the school to also join us in the conference.
