Dear all,

Not doing anything the weekend after next? Following some late withdrawals
some places have opened up at the tenth "Quantum Monte Carlo and the CASINO
program" summer school at the Apuan Alps Centre for Physics, Tuscany, Italy
(Sat 23rd to Sat 30th July).

The aim of these schools is to give students (and older people
wishing to learn new techniques) a thorough introduction to quantum Monte
Carlo as a method for performing high-quality calculations of the
electronic structure of atoms, molecules, and materials, whilst getting to
know like-minded friends and possible future collaborators from all around
the world. Most afternoons mountain walks and similar activities are
organized in the spectacular setting of the Apuan Alps. To date well over
200 students from at least 37 countries have taken part.

Further information about the 2016 school is available here:
