CCQ is pleased to host a special conference to celebrate the 5th anniversary of our work developing the concepts, theories, algorithms and codes needed to solve the quantum many-body problem and to use the solutions to predict the behavior of materials and molecules of scientific and technological interest. The conference will feature invited talks by distinguished guests, poster presentations by CCQ scientists, round-tables, panel discussions, plenty of time for informal interactions… and of course celebrations of our 5+ years of operation!
