SEEDMOL 2024

Welcome

We are pleased to invite you to participate in the 10th SeedMol (Symposium on Electronic Structure and Molecular Dynamics).

This edition of SeedMol is promoted by the University of Brasília, State University of Goiás and Federal University of Goiás. The event will take place from November 4th to 8th, 2024 at UEG Câmpus Pirenópolis. The event will be in person.

The Symposium takes place every two years and aims to offer a broad view of the development, new directions and application of theoretical chemistry. Topics range from development and application in chemistry, biology, medicinal chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology, solid state, catalysis, and related fields.

We hope with the event to bring to the Brazil Center-West the discussion around this important area of theoretical chemistry and atomic and molecular physics, enabling the dissemination of knowledge and greater exchange. The training of new professionals with a multidisciplinary vision, focusing on modeling and computer simulation methodologies is also an objective of the event.

In this 10th Edition of the event we expect the participation of 150 registrants including teachers, high school teachers, post-doctoral fellows, undergraduate and postgraduate students. The presence of 19 speakers has been confirmed, including researchers from Brazil, USA, Europe, and Uruguay. These researchers will be presenting their work at conferences and short courses.

We will also have student lectures and posters presented, enriching the knowledge of participants and colaborations between researchers. In addition to strengthening the cooperation of postgraduate programs and partners, to improve the quality of national scientific and technological production.

The current state of research and development has a strong tendency to use computational tools to optimize processes and develop new materials and synthesis routes. Physics of electronic structure and computational chemistry can provide a reduction in spending on various experimental tasks through modeling and simulation, where the idea is to seek a better prediction of results. Therefore, the areas of interest of the symposium are listed below:

a) Computational and theoretical chemistry b) Computational Biology c) Bioinformatics d) Atomic and molecular physics e) Scientific Computing f) Medicinal Chemistry g) Development of new materials h) Simulation in heterogeneous catalysis i) Nanomaterials j) Molecular modeling and simulation k) simulation biofuels l) Development of methods and programs in chemistry, atomic and molecular physics and bioinformatics.
