Message:
We are pleased to announce the 2011 Computational Chemistry and Material Science (CCMS)
Summer Institute: Materials Research for Energy at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
(LLNL). The goal of the Summer Institute is to provide an opportunity for graduate
students to explore and learn some of the cutting-edge methods in computational materials
sciences, computational chemistry, and other related areas of computational science during
their early years of graduate study. Each student will spend ten weeks at LLNL as the
guest of an LLNL host scientist, working on a computational materials research project
related to energy. In addition, renowned experts in the field from major research
universities and national laboratories around the country will present a series of
mini-courses for the student fellows. These courses will cover state-of-the-art and
emerging computational methods in materials research for energy. There is a great deal of
excitement in the computational science community for investigating various aspects of
materials for energy-related problems. At the same time, there is an urgent need to train
the next generation of scientists in the use of the latest computational methods and
approaches for solving these challenging problems. LLNL is one of the leading national
laboratories of the US Department of Energy, and is well known for its state-of-the-art
computational science capabilities. Summer fellows will be selected from among an open
pool of applicants who have demonstrated a strong interest in computational sciences,
especially materials science, physics and chemistry. The Institute will run from June 7 to
August 12, 2011. Travel funds and a generous stipend will be provided to the participants.
In order to be considered, prospective participants will need to fill out an application
form that can be found at the following website:
http://www.llnl.gov/ccms/ The application
deadline is January 31, 2011. Attached, please find a PDF version of the CCMS Summer
Institute announcement. We would greatly appreciate it if you could bring this
announcement to the attention of graduate students that you feel would benefit from the
experience of hands-on research in computational chemistry and materials science, working
with leading researchers at a national laboratory. Additional details about the summer
institute can be found on the website listed above. Yosuke Kanai (kanai3(a)llnl.gov) Ming
