Hi all, This is a good opportunity if you want to learn about TDDFT, meet the people in the field, and enjoy two weeks in the Pyrenees skiing and eating chuleton. Usually there is funding from NSF for US researchers. Xavier ------------------------------------------------------- Dear Colleagues, This is to announce the 6th International School and Workshop on "Time-Dependent Density-Functional Theory: Prospects and Applications" which will be held Jan 5th -- Jan 17th 2014 at the beautiful Centro de Ciencias de Benasque Pedro Pascual (Benasque, Spain; http://benasque.org/) Please see http://benasque.org/2014tddft/ for details, and read more below! Location/Timing: We plan to organize this event at the “Centro de Ciencias de Benasque Pedro Pascual”, Benasque, Spain (http://benasque.org/), from January 5th, 2014 to January 17th, 2014. Benasque is a beautiful town in the heart of the Pyrenees. The school will take place from Janary 5th to January 13th, and the workshop will start January 14th and finish on January 17th. Participants: The call for participation will be mainly directed to students and scientists specialized on computational physics, quantum chemistry and biophysics. We will limit the number of students to the school to 40 and participants to the workshop to less than 100, in order to ensure a maximum interaction between all the scientists participating. Attendance of graduate students and post-docs will be strongly encouraged through the inclusion of short contributed talks and a poster session. Furthermore, we will award to PhD students who present an outstanding poster short oral presentations. Applications/Support: All persons who wish to participate should fill out the application form at: http://benasque.org/2014tddft/ In the comments section, please indicate if you wish to participate in the Summer Summer School or in the Workshop (or in both). For participants coming from the USA, please check the following address for support: http://www.mcc.uiuc.edu/ School only: As we have a very limited number of places for the school, students will be selected from among an open pool of applicants who have demonstrated a strong interest in computational sciences, applied to chemistry, physics, materials science and biology. Therefore, in order that we can make a reasonable selection, we ask that *all* candidates include in the comments section the following information: *) Date of birth, gender *) Motivation/Why they want to come (just a couple of lines is enough) *) What is their current and previous positions (if PhD or Post-doc state your supervisor). We will *not* accept applications that do not include this information. Furthermore, we will give priority to students willing to participate in both the Summer School and the Workshop. We also have a very limited number of grants available that cover traveling and part of the stay in Benasque. If you want to apply for a grant, please indicate explicitly that you wish to be supported in the comments section, and explain why (just a couple of lines is enough). We will inform you about the grant in early autumn. Organizers: A. Castro, ARAID Foundation - Institute for Biocomputation and Physics of Complex Systems (BIFI), Universidad de Zaragoza, Spain E. K.
