Announcement of the 1st COST COSY Training School, Belgrade 19-22 September 2023

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the 1st COST COSY Training School entitled "Multiscale modeling of the properties of compounds: From isolated molecules to 3D materials relevant for industrial and astrophysical applications". The School will take place at Hotel Palace in Belgrade from 19-22 September.

It focuses on a better understanding and recognizing issues relevant to applying the novel computational approaches for the multiscale modeling of molecular systems, isolated or confined environments, which may consist of enclosing molecular cages, surfaces, interfaces, and strong electromagnetic static or optical fields. Accurate characterization of phenomena of astrochemical relevance, using the most advanced spectroscopic technics and the highest ab initio theories, will also be included. Worldwide experts working in European countries are invited to present the most relevant state-of-the-art techniques and their applications.
MSc, Ph.D. students, post-docs, and permanent scientists can apply for the COST COSY funds, which will cover a full board in the Palace Hotel in downtown Belgrade and travel expenses.
