Subject: Get your free (to academics) OpenACC Toolkit
To: Mark Berger <mberger(a)nvidia.com>
Thought that this might be a of interest to many of you or to your academic
friends who are interested in porting existing applications to be
GPU-accelerated via directives embedded within your existing code.
Benefits are one code source which can be compiled to either X86 or X86
plus GPU (for acceleration).

Hi Group!
We were just in the excitonics subgroup meeting, and Alan reminded us of
Markland's talk today at 4:15p (presumably in Pfizer lecture hall). He's
from Stanford and he's on his tenure tour, so it should be a good talk.
Cheers, Nicolas

Good afternoon!
This coming Monday, 25 April, Professor Thomas Markland, Stanford Univ.,
will be with us. His 4:15 p.m. seminar is “Nuclear and Electronic
Fluctuations in Hydrogen Bonded Systems: From Atmospheric Science to
Enzyme Catalysis.”
There are opportunities for “office hours,” both in the morning and
afternoon. Please let me know if you are interested.
Many thanks!

Hello Everyone,
If you consider yourself an excitonics researcher or are just a fan, please
join us for the meeting at noon in the war room.
Hope to see you there!

Hi everyone,
Based on the survey results, we'll have group lunch on Monday, May 2nd at
12pm at Fire and Ice. We'll leave from the department at 11:50am
I don't remember if they do separate checks or not, but everyone please
bring ~$12 in cash just in case.
See you then!

- Early Registration deadline: July 30
We would like to draw your attention, and that of the quantum information
community, to the 16th edition of the Asian Quantum Information Science
Conference (AQIS 2016).
AQIS 2016 will be the 16th conference in a series that includes EQIS
2001-05 and AQIS 2006-15. The conference will consist of invited talks,
selected oral and poster presentations, tutorials, and other activities.
Contributions are solicited in (but not limited to) the following areas:
* Quantum computation, algorithms, and complexity
* Quantum information theory
* Techniques for suppressing decoherence
* Quantum cryptography
* Quantum communication experiments and theory
* Implementations of quantum information processing
* Quantum processor and computer design
The submission deadline is June 8, 2016, 23:59 Anywhere on Earth (AoE).
All submissions must follow the guidelines specified on the conference
website:
http://aqis-conf.org/2016/
Further conference details can be found at that site, which will be updated
regularly.
Please note that AQIS does not have published proceedings, so authors are
welcome to submit work that has been previously published, and acceptance
at AQIS will not impact the ability to publish work in other venues.
Invited speakers at AQIS 2016 include:
* Andris Ambainis (University of Latvia)
* Antonio Córcoles (IBM)
* Andrew Dzurak (UNSW)
* Osamu Hirota (Tamagawa University)
* Krister Shalm (NIST)
* Yaoyun Shi (University of Michigan)

Hi all,
Tomorrow at 1:30 Adrian will tell us about the most scientifically
fulfilling week of his PhD (so far).
See you there,
Ian
-------------------------------------
Title: Navigating model chemistry space in search of accurate biochemical
redox potentials
Abstract: I will tell you tomorrow about this past week, which has been the
most scientifically fulfilling one of my PhD so far. I will tell you about
the lessons we have learned from exploring many different ways to quantum
chemically estimate the reduction potentials of a bunch of biochemical
reactions which we have experimental data for. And also of a very exciting
(for James and I) mystery that we think we have now solved through a mixed
quantum chemistry / machine learning approach to predicting redox
potentials.
Hey guys,
Here's the link for this month's group lunch. Let's find a date within the
next two weeks!

I've narrowed the range to options that are mostly large group friendly,
feel free to add others.
Cheers,
Jennifer
