The “ICIQ-FIFC Spain-Japan Joint Symposium on Theoretical and Computational Chemistry of Complex Systems”, co-organized between the Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia and the Fukui Institute for Fundamental Chemistry, will bring together researchers from both countries working in the general field of computational chemistry. The goal of the meeting is to exchange knowledge between the participating groups and strengthen the ties that may lead to future collaborations.
Attendance to the lectures will be free of charge, although we kindly ask all attendees to register (please fill out the registration form below). Please follow this link to download the symposium’s programme.
