Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to extend an invitation to you for this insightful session 
of our MatSQ Webinar Series at Materials Square. Registration is now open, 
and you can secure your spot by visiting: 
https://www.materialssquare.com/webinar

We are thrilled to announce our distinguished guest speaker, Prof. Antonino 
Marco Saitta, Exceptional Class 2 Professor in Physics at Sorbonne 
University's Institute of Mineralogy, Physics of Materials and Cosmochemistry 
(IMPMC) (http://impmc.sorbonne-universite.fr/en/index.html ).

A specialist in electronic structure theory and ab initio calculations, Prof. 
Saitta has made significant contributions in diverse fields ranging from bulk 
semiconductors to graphene, nanotubes, water, and ices. His work's breadth 
extends to biogeochemistry, and the burgeoning realm of machine learning in 
materials science.

In this stimulating session, Prof. Saitta will give us a comprehensive tour 
of his computational materials science research and the latest challenges in 
high-pressure science. The primary focus of the presentation will be 
"Transformations in Computational Materials Science from Topological 
Approaches: Nucleation, Amorphisation, Phase Diagrams, Chemical Reactions".

The webinar spotlight will be on a novel methodology grounded in ab initio 
molecular dynamics and bolstered by sophisticated sampling techniques. This 
approach sets the stage for unraveling thermodynamics, kinetics, and 
mechanisms in materials, with a particular emphasis on pivotal phase 
transitions. 

Prof. Saitta exposition will elucidate transitions among liquid, amorphous, 
and crystalline forms throughout water's entire phase diagram. This includes 
the intriguing phenomena of crystal nucleation both above and below the 
melting point, and the first-order liquid-liquid phase transition. 
Webinar Title: "Transformations in Computational Materials Science from 
Topological Approaches: Nucleation, Amorphisation, Phase Diagrams, Chemical 
Reactions"
Presenter: Prof. A. Marco Saitta (Sorbonne University, Paris, France)
