Announcements of conferences, workshops, schools…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to extend an invitation to you for this insightful session of our MatSQ Webinar Series at Materials Square. Registration is now open, and you can secure your spot by visiting: https://www.materialssquare.com/webinar .
We are thrilled to announce our distinguished guest speaker, Prof. Antonino Marco Saitta, Exceptional Class 2 Professor in Physics at Sorbonne University's Institute of Mineralogy, Physics of Materials and Cosmochemistry (IMPMC) (http://impmc.sorbonne-universite.fr/en/index.html ).
A specialist in electronic structure theory and ab initio calculations, Prof. Saitta has made significant contributions in diverse fields ranging from bulk semiconductors to graphene, nanotubes, water, and ices. His work's breadth extends to biogeochemistry, and the burgeoning realm of machine learning in materials science.
In this stimulating session, Prof. Saitta will give us a comprehensive tour of his computational materials science research and the latest challenges in high-pressure science. The primary focus of the presentation will be "Transformations in Computational Materials Science from Topological Approaches: Nucleation, Amorphisation, Phase Diagrams, Chemical Reactions".
The webinar spotlight will be on a novel methodology grounded in ab initio molecular dynamics and bolstered by sophisticated sampling techniques. This approach sets the stage for unraveling thermodynamics, kinetics, and mechanisms in materials, with a particular emphasis on pivotal phase transitions. Prof. Saitta exposition will elucidate transitions among liquid, amorphous, and crystalline forms throughout water's entire phase diagram. This includes the intriguing phenomena of crystal nucleation both above and below the melting point, and the first-order liquid-liquid phase transition.
Webinar Title: "Transformations in Computational Materials Science from Topological Approaches: Nucleation, Amorphisation, Phase Diagrams, Chemical Reactions"
