U.S.-Latin American Workshop on Molecular and Materials Sciences: Theoretical and Computational Aspects; Gainesville, FL, March 10-12, 1993

这一美洲计划奖将支持参加一个关于分子和材料科学的理论和计算方面的研讨会。研讨会由佛罗里达大学的David A.Micha博士组织，将汇集高级博士生和研究科学家，回顾该领域的最新发展。重点介绍了对中端计算设施具有普遍适用性的方法和计算机程序。参与者是知名的研究人员，讨论的主题将涉及解释数据和预测理论化学领域的现象的新方法，如分子簇、聚合物和蛋白质，实心表面和其他。这次会议将讨论人力资源开发问题，在这个目前非常活跃和充满希望的领域，在这个国家和整个半球都是如此。

This Americas Program award will support attendance to a workshop on the theoretical and computational aspects of molecular and materials sciences. The workshop, organized by Dr. David A. Micha of the University of Florida, will bring together advanced doctoral students and research scientists to review recent developments in the field, with emphasis on methods and computer programs of general applicability with mid-range computing facilities. Participants are well-known investigators, and the topics to be discussed will address new methods to interpret data and to predict phenomena in areas of theoretical chemistry such as molecular clusters, polymers and proteins, solid surfaces and others. The meeting will address issues of human resource development, both in this country and throughout the hemisphere, in an area of much current activity and promise.
