Please submit your abstract here: https://callforabstracts.acs.org/acsfall2022/PHYS This symposium aims to bring together a diverse community of theoretical chemists to discuss recent advances in quantum chemistry, current challenges, and prospects for future developments. The program of this symposium will consist of eight half-day sessions and will be divided into four frontier themes: 1. Strong electron correlation 2. Excited states and spectroscopy 3. Quantum chemistry in condensed phases 4. Emerging approaches (e.g., quantum computing, machine learning) We welcome contributions from postdocs and senior graduate students. In addition to contributed talks, the following invited speakers will present their research: Anna Krylov (University of Southern California) Artur Izmaylov (University of Toronto) Aurora PribramJones (University of California, Merced) Christine Isborn (University of California, Merced) Daniel Nascimento (University of Memphis) David Mazziotti (University of Chicago) Devin Matthews (Southern Methodist University) Elvira Sayfutyarova (Penn State) Eric Neuscamman (University of California, Berkeley) Eugene DePrince (Florida State University) Fabijan Pavosevic (Flatiron Institute) Fang Liu (Emory University) Garnet Chan (California Institute of Technology) Giulia Galli (University of Chicago) Gustavo Scuseria (Rice University) James Shepherd (University of Iowa) James Whitfield (Dartmouth College) John Herbert (The Ohio State University) Konstantinos Vogiatzis (University of Tennessee) Ksenia Bravaya (Boston University) Lan Cheng (Johns Hopkins University) Laura Gagliardi (University of Chicago) Lyudmila Slipchenko (Purdue University) Marcel Nooijen (University of Waterloo) Michael Schuurman (University of Ottawa) Noa Marom (Carnegie Mellon University) Olexandr Isayev (Carnegie Mellon University) Philip Shushkov (Tufts University) Piotr Piecuch (Michigan State University) Ramon Alain Miranda-Quintana (University of Florida) Rob Parrish (QC Ware) Rosa Di Felice (University of Southern California) Sandeep Sharma (University of Colorado, Boulder) Sijia Dong (Northeastern University) Sonia Coriani (Technical University of Denmark) Sophia Economou (Virginia Tech) Tianyu Zhu (Yale University) Volker Blum (Duke University) Xiaosong Li (University of Washington) Yuan Ping (University of California, Santa Cruz) Zhou Lin (University of Massachusetts, Amherst) We hope to see you in Chicago this Fall!
