What do we want to ultimately achieve (in the medium/long run) ?


1. INCREASE INSIGHT INTO CHEMISTRY:

  • Help experimentalists and computational chemists to rationalise the results of their (computer) experiments,
  • Give meaningfulness to the ever-increasing data that is generated


2. CLARITY OF AVAILABLE CONCEPTS AND TOOLS:

  • Define/clarify the terminology used by each method/model and aim to reach a common terminology.
  • Precise in which situation(s) and for which question(s) each specific tool/model can/cannot be used
  • Establish bridges between different angles of insight, coming from different classes of methods

This information should first be agreed on within the different method developers and then be made available to the chemical community.


3. NEW DEVELOPMENTS OF USEFUL CONCEPT AND TOOLS:

Promote interaction and collective work within, and between sub-communities of theoreticians and experimentalists.


4. SPREADING OF CORE CONCEPTS IN CHEMISTRY

Core concepts should spread at three different levels:

  • within universities
  • within high schools
  • among the general public


*** I think this can be removed...***

4. DIFFUSION OF CONCEPTUAL TOOLS AND MODELS IN THE CHEMICAL COMMUNITY:

by helping chemists understand:

  • in which situation(s) and for which question(s) each specific tool/model can/cannot be used
  • the common ground, but also differences in viewpoints and capabilities between related tools/models
  • the terminology used by different methods.
