CCL: CECAM Workshop on Spin States

 Sent to CCL by: "Marcel Swart" [marcel.swart%a%icrea.cat]
 Dear all,
 We are organizing a scientific workshop on âSpin states in biochemistry and
 inorganic chemistryâ,
 to be held at the Z-Cam center in Zaragoza, Spain from 18-21 September 2012. The
 workshop is part
 of the renowned CECAM series of workshops. CECAM (Centre EuropÃen de Calcul
 Atomique et
 MolÃculaire) is a European organization devoted to the promotion of
 fundamental
 research on
 advanced computational methods and to their application to important problems in
 frontier areas of
 science and technology.
 Elucidating the role and effect of different spin states on catalysis, even
 deciding
 which
 spin-state occurs naturally, is presently one of the most challenging endeavors
 both
 > from an
 experimental and theoretical point-of-view. This workshop will bring together
 theoretical and experimental experts to discuss this situation and propose best
 practices on how
 to deal with the problem in future scientific research. The list of renowned
 experts
 includes: J.
 Harvey (Bristol), M. Kaupp (Berlin), E. MÃnck (Carnegie-Mellon), L. Que Jr.
 (Minnesota), J.P.
 Perdew (New Orleans), P. Siegbahn (Stockholm), W. Thiel (MPI-MÃlheim),
 among others.
 The full list
 of
 participants and speakers is given at:

 There are a limited number of places available to attend this workshop and
 present
 your work, so
 please send us a message with a tentative title of your talk. The deadline for
 it is:
 23 July.
