    2016 International Workshop onComputational Materialsin Guangzhou

    Time:2016-12-18

    Welcome to 2016 International Workshop on Computational Materials in Guangzhou

    (http://http://www.compphys.cn/others/workshop/Workshop_ZhuJiang.htm), which is organized by School of Physics and Optoelectronics, South China University of Technology (SCUT). The workshop is dedicated to recent progress on computational materials, and an effective platform to exchange views on various research topics from the international computational community. The oral presentations are scheduled around 30 minutes, and the poster is designed to be 90cm x 60cm (size).


    The workshop will be held on December 15-17atZhujiang Hotel (http://hotel.thszx.cn/204440/), with registration on 15th and scientific programs on 16-17th. Abstracts on computational materials for oral presentations or posters are welcome until December 5th, 2016. All participants are suggested to send their schedules for the hotel reservation.Please send the abstracts and schedules directly to Prof. Xiao-Bao YangSCUT by emailscxbyang@scut.edu.cn.
