Nanomaterials is one of the areas of materials science where the involvement of theory, computer modelling and experiment is paramount. This workshop is aimed at bringing together people interested in the quantum-chemical modelling of large nanostructures and other realistic systems with thousands of atoms. It will bring together developers,  end-users and experimentalists, to share new tools and methods adapted to meet the challenges of nanotechnology.

Venue and Date

The conference will take place at the Department of Physics of the University of Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal (see Venue), June 6-9th 2012.
