Dear colleagues
Please find the 1st announcement of the 1st Paris International School
on Advanced Computational Materials Science (PISACMS2015), which will be
held from Mon Aug 24th to Sat Aug 29th, 2015, in the Jussieu campus of
the Université Pierre et Marie Curie, in the heart of the Latin Quarter
of central Paris.
The aim of this school is to form new generations of young researchers
(PhD students, postdocs, young assistant professors) to atomic,
molecular and condensed phase computational methods, from theory to the
most advanced approaches, going from the very microscopic to the
macroscopic: Density Functional Theory, classical Monte-Carlo and
molecular dynamics, ab initio molecular dynamics, metadynamics, linear
response, lattice-Boltzmann methods, Quantum Monte-Carlo. Our ambition
is to make students aware of the fundamental principles of each methods,
and then able to choose the most adapted one(s) for a given scientific
problem. The broad panel of approaches we propose, both via theory
lessons and computer lab "projects", is rare in the international
landscape. This school will benefit both from the exceptional central
Paris environment, and from the local concentration of young and
confirmed experts-teachers in each specific theme of the school,
including Michele Casula, Guillaume Ferlat, Fabio Finocchi, Francesco
Mauri, Fabio Pietrucci, Benjamin Rotenberg, A. Marco Saitta, Mathieu
Salanne, Ari Seitsonen, Rodolphe Vuilleumier.
