Computational Materials Science 2020 poster

About the workshop

The two-day online training workshop is dedicated to most recent advances in the theory and simulation of Materials. The speakers are well-known experts in their fields. The workshop is aimed to young researchers in theoretical and computational Materials Science, including senior undergraduate students, graduate students, PhD candidates, postdocs and early-career investigators.

The event is co-organized by the Department of Materials Science and Technology, University of Crete and the Hellenic Society for the Science and Technology of Condensed Matter (HSSTCM). .

HSSTCM is a Greek non-profit scientific society founded in 1981 which is member of Federation of European Materials Societies (FEMS). The objectives of HSSTCM is to promote the exchange of new developments and achievements in the field of Condensed Matter and Materials Science, and to support their applications. Membership costs 20 euros (10 euros for students) per year; please visit the HSSTCM webpage for details.

Participation to this workshop is free of charge for HSSTCM or FEMS members.

Participants should have received emails with instructions on how to connect by the end of Dec. 17th. In case you have registered and you have not received such email, please contact the organizers at cms20@materials.uoc.gr

Registration

Registration deadline is Friday, Dec. 11th, 2020. New deadline: Tuesday, Dec. 15th, 2020.

To register, please send email with your name and affiliation to cms20@materials.uoc.gr and choose one of the following:

(1) No further action is needed if you are member of HSSTCM or FEMS and you have paid membership fee for 2020 before the registration deadline (recommended for participants from Greece).

(2) Please pay registration fee of 20 euros if you are NOT a member of HSSTCM or FEMS. Payment by transfer to the HSSTCM bank account; account number can be found in the membership application form at the the HSSTCM website.

We encourage participants from Greek Academic Institutions, in particular students, to become members of Hellenic Society for the Science and Technology of Condensed Matter, HSSTCM and participate for free in this workshop

Participation Certificate

Certificate of attendance will be provided to all participants. Details on how to receive certificates will be posted here after the conference.
