Second Announcement (14/03/2013)

Dear all

Please note that we have updated the wikipage http://wiki.lct.jussieu.fr/workshop/index.php/Participants_to_NCI_workshop

Highlights:

• Updated information on student grants: Grants are available for students in order to facilitate their participation to the workshop. The application procedure is described under the "Travel Grants" page. All documents should be received before 30th April in order to be eligible. Candidates will be contacted in May regarding the outcome of their application.

• Practical training sessions will be organized on the day prior to the workshop. You can find the specific information on the schedule and objectives under the"Training session" page. Due to the limited size of the computer room, would you like to participate, you will need register specifically for each session (NCI, ELF, MD-NCI, NCI-solids, ELF-NCI) at http://doodle.com/exzhkiegergybmd9 .

A maximum of 12 participants per session will be accepted (although serial sessions on the same topic could be organised if needed).

• We remind you that registration closes on April 15th. Due to room size constrains, there is a limit on the number of participants (ca. 50) which will be applied on a first-come, first-served basis.

Hope to see you soon in Paris,

The organizing committee: Julia Contreras-Garcia Robin Chaudret Jean Philip Piquemal Erin Johnson

First Announcement (06/02/2013)

Dear colleagues,

We are organizing a workshop on "Topological approaches to intermolecular interactions" within the CFCAM framework. The workshop will be held in Paris from 26-28th of June. The main objective of this workshop is to gather the topological community together to promote discussion of topological approaches to intermolecular interactions (including, but not limited to, NCI), their limitations, and future directions. You will be able to find all the information, as well as updates, at our wikipage: http://wiki.lct.jussieu.fr/workshop/index.php/Topological_Approaches_to_Intermolecular_Interactions

Please note that in order to promote participation and enrich the discussion, there will be no registration fees. Grants for students will also be awarded. They will be announced through the above link in due time, the amount depending on the funding received.

Some of our confirmed speakers are: Odile Eisenstein, Paul Popelier,Frank de Proft, Manuel Yáñez and Weitao Yang.

There is still plenty of room for other contributions and we are accepting abstracts for oral and poster contributions. If you would like to participate with a talk/poster, do not hesitate to let us know. You can either send it to us (nciworkshop@lct.jussieu.fr), or even better upload it directly to the Abstract pool on the wikipage.

Either case, don't forget to send us an email to the address above indicating the type of contribution you would like. You can find the instructions for the use of the wiki on the website (open access to everybody upon registration to the wiki). Please note that you should register and (if applicable) send your abstract by 15th April 2013.

If you have any comments or enquiries, do not hesitate to contact us at nciworkshop@lct.jussieu.fr.

We hope to see you all at the workshop,

The organizing committee: Julia Contreras-García Robin Chaudret Jean-Philip Piquemal Erin Johnson

P.S.: Feel free to forward this information to any colleague who might be interested in this discussion
