Pan American Advanced Studies Institute: Computational Nanotechnology and Molecular Engineering; Pasadena, CA, January 2004

0322465戈达德这个泛美高级研究所（PASI）奖，由美国国家科学基金会和能源部（DOE）联合支持，将在帕萨迪纳，加州的计算纳米技术和分子工程的主题。 该研究所由加州理工学院的威廉戈达德博士组织，将有大约40名来自美国和拉丁美洲的研究生和博士后研究人员参加。 提议者打算围绕上述两个主题组织PASI，特别关注纳米技术应用中分子基组件和器件的计算机建模和模拟。 主题将通过使用计算化学中的常用方法联系起来。 在更广泛的影响中，预计会议将有助于未来的研究合作和工业机器人，提高石油采收率和炼油厂下游业务的应用。此外，组织者将建立一个网址http://www.wag.Caltech.edu/PASI，以协助征聘和传播工作。

0322465GoddardThis Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will take place in Pasadena, California on the topic of computational nanotechnology and molecular engineering. Organized by Dr. William Goddard of the California Institute of Technology, the institute will involve approximately 40 graduate students and postdoctoral researchers from the U.S. and Latin America. The proposers intend to organize the PASI around the two topics above, with special attention to computer modeling and simulation of molecular based components and devices for applications to nanotechnology. Topics will be linked by the use of common methodologies in computational chemistry. Among the broader impacts, it is expected that the meeting will contribute to future research collaborations and applications to industrial robotics, enhanced oil recovery, and refinery downstream operations. In addition, the organizers will develop a web site at http://www.wag.Caltech.edu/PASI that will be of assistance in recruitment and dissemination efforts.
