Dear QE'ers,
this is to announce the "/*International workshop on computational physics and materials science*/" that will be held at EPFL (Lausanne) on *Jan 9-11 2014* (from 9am on Jan 9 to 1pm on Jan 11). This workshop is part of the long-running series of "Total Energy" conferences, that are held every even year at ICTP in Trieste (the "maxi"), and every odd year elsewhere in the world (the "mini"). We have been fortunate to have a very exciting line-up of speakers (see www.cecam.org/workshop-1-1056.html <http://www.cecam.org/workshop-1-1056.html> ); to participate to the workshop, you need to apply through the CECAM website (www.cecam.org/workshop-6-1056.html <http://www.cecam.org/workshop-6-1056.html> ) by *Dec 18*. Selection of admitted participants (largely on a first come, first served basis) is ongoing; those selected become listed on the website, and those selected by Dec 13 will also be invited to submit a poster (the poster session will be held on the evening of Jan 9, together with the traditional wine/buffet for all). There is no charge to attend the workshop, but participants that have been selected need to make their own hotel bookings; the Starling Hotel at EPFL offers a discounted rate of 160 CHF/night, inclusive of breakfast, that can be obtained by referring to the 'Total Energy' workshop. Hoping to see you in Lausanne soon!
