[Pw_forum] 3rd Annual CNF Fall Workshop on Nanoscience and Geology

[stewart at cnf.cornell.edu]

Dear Quantum Espresso users and developers, 

I would like to draw your attention to the 3rd Annual Cornell Nanoscale 
Facility Fall Workshop, "Defining the Interface between Nanoscience and 
Geology" to be held at Cornell University from Nov. 12-13th. 

This year, we will examine how nanoscale simulation tools can impact 
research in geology.  Areas of focus include modeling high pressure 
materials, phonon dispersions and seismology, biomineralization, and 
fluid-mineral interactions.  This workshop will provide morning lectures on 
the theory and afternoon hands-on sessions where participants work directly 
with the codes.  The Quantum Espresso package will be covered in tutorial 
sessions. 

For more details and to register, please visit:

Thanks to the Kavli Institute for Nanoscience, we will have funding to help 
a limited number of graduate and post-doctoral students attend the workshop. 
The number of participants is limited so register early. 

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.  I hope you 
can join us!

Best regards, 

Derek
