Dear colleagues,

in the week September 4-8, 2017, we will organize a "Hands-on course on ab-initio calculations" in Goettingen, Germany.
The course is open to a limited number of external participants (Registration required). Please inform interested students and collaborators. 

The purpose of this one-week block course is to introduce students to the state-of-the-art of modern ab-initio calculations in the context of density-functional theory. The course provides the theoretical background on methods and materials as well as a hands-on practical training on the CP-PAW code. The course targets physicists and chemists during their masters and doctoral studies. After finishing the course, the students will be able to independently develop and carry out ab-initio calculations as well as to analyze and judge their results.

Registration deadline: June 1st, 2017.

More details about the Hands-on course, including information on how to apply/register can be found from the homepage at:
