Dear Colleagues and Friends,

The next instalment of the CECAM Mixed-Gen series will take place on Thursday July 7, from 15:00 to 19:00 CEST and discuss the broad topic SIMULATING QUANTUM MATERIALS.

The session will be opened on Zoom by Prof. Antoine Georges, from Collège de France, Paris and Flatiron Institute, New York with a webinar titled “Electronic structure of quantum materials with strong correlations: a dynamical mean-field theory perspective”. 

Prof. Georges’ talk will be followed by a presentation from Sophie Beck, Flatiron Institute, New York, who will discuss “Ab initio description of strongly correlated materials: combining density functional theory and dynamical mean-field theory”.

Two more webinars, selected from the posters submitted for this session (see below) will follow.

In the second part of the event, we shall move to a virtual poster session hosted in a Gather room where more PhD students and researchers in their first post-doc will present pertinent projects. Please note that only registered participants will have access to the poster session. The session’s speaker and other expert guests will join us to view and discuss the posters with their presenters. Posters from the previous sessions will also be available for viewing.

Please disseminate this information to PhD students and young researchers potentially interested in attending. Of course, more senior members of the community - always young at heart - are also very welcome! 

Details on the Zoom and Gather connections will be provided closer to the date of the event.

Best wishes,

The CECAM Team in Lausanne
