Computation in the Physical Sciences: State of the Art Molecular Modeling
A Research Community of Faculty and Students

Participating Faculty:

Sudha Srinivas (Physics)

Paulo Acioli (Physics)

Ana Fraiman (Chemistry)

Stefan Tsonchev (Chemistry)

The activities of this Research Community are targeted workshops to train participants to solve problems in physical and chemical systems using computational methodologies. A series of workshops will introduce participating students to the basics of computational visualization and train them in key modeling concepts and give them direct experience in using powerful computational techniques. Students will use these methods in individualized projects, studying the physical and chemical properties of a system they choose in consultation with participating faculty.
