A wide range of complex problems in chemistry, physics, biology and engineering can be studied and understood at the molecular level thanks to the explosive growth of powerful supercomputers and simulation methods. The knowledge of thermodynamics, dynamics and structural properties of systems at molecular level allows the design of better strategies to solve problems in those fields. The aim of this meeting is to promote the field of molecular simulations between the Mexican community and learn about the state of the art of methods and their applications. This time the speakers come from México, Europe and United States. The conferences will cover subjects from simple fluids to chemical reactions. Introductory courses on Intermolecular Forces, Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamics methods will be given the first day of the meeting. Applications go from efficient sampling methods, parallel Molecular dynamics, hydrocarbons, liquid crystals, colloids, surfactants, water in different environments and proteins in solution. A Poster session is also programmed. Participants to the meeting include undergraduate and graduate students as well as researchers from different universities. El Premio del Simposio de Simulación Molecular will be awarded to an outstanding Mexican scientist.
The Prize of the 2nd Meeting on Molecular Simulations was
awarded to:
DR. GUSTAVO ADOLFO CHAPELA CASTAÑARES.
