We are pleased to announce the conference on Theory and Applications of Computational 
Chemistry (TACC2016), which will be held on the campus of the University of Washington in 
Seattle, USA from August 28 - September 2, 2016 (http://www.tacc2016.org).  TACC2016 will 
convene leading researchers in theoretical and computational chemistry and allied disciplines to 
present and discuss forefront research in the development and application of chemical theory and 
computation. A broad range of fundamental and applied topics in chemistry, biochemistry, and 
materials science will be covered, including a special focus on computational approaches that 
bridge the gap between atomistic simulations and mesoscale phenomena, and that exploit 
advanced computing and informatics technologies to push the frontiers of the field. The program 
will include keynote, plenary and parallel invited lectures, with contributed presentations selected 
> from among the abstracts submitted to the conference. 

The program will include four keynote lectures:

D. A. Baker (UW), E. A. Carter (Princeton U), G. Galli (U Chicago), and G. A. Voth (U Chicago); 

Plenary lectures:

A. Aspuru Guzik (Harvard), J-L. Bredas (KAUST), K. A. Fichthorn (Penn State), J. Gale (Curtin), S.
