Dear all,

The conference "Materials modelling: Simulation Meets Experiment" will be held in the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, U.K., from Monday 11 to Wednesday 13 September 2017. There will be contributed talks available and a poster session on Monday evening. We have excellent confirmed invited speakers including:

  *   Prof. Dorothy Duffy, University College London, U.K.
  *   Prof. Dr. Friedrich Kremer, University of Leipzig, Germany
  *   Prof. Peter Monson, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, U.S.A.
  *   Prof. Joop ter Horst, University of Strathclyde, U.K.

This conference is also CCP5's Annual General Meeting. CCP5 is an EPSRC funded Collaborative Computational Project for computer simulation of condensed phase materials at length scales spanning from electronic to mesoscopic levels. Materials of interest include liquids, polymers, solids, surfaces and interfaces, and macromolecules. We aim to facilitate collaborations by bringing together modellers, experimentalists and industrialists.

Abstract submission is now open and the deadline is 30th April 2017. Please submit your abstract by email to [email protected] with "CCP5 AGM abstract submission" in the subject. Please also state if you would prefer a poster or oral presentation.

Early bird registration is £130 and the deadline is 30th June 2017. After this it will still be possible to register at the full fee of £200 until 31st August 2017. The registration fee includes conference dinner and catering expenses.

The meeting is expected to begin at lunchtime on Monday and end at lunchtime on Wednesday. A Civic Reception is planned for Monday evening, after the poster session, in the beautiful Glasgow City Chambers. The conference dinner will be on Tuesday evening.
