Labeling, probing and sensing

How and when theory

Conference Winter
Modeling 2012

The annual Winter Modeling meetings act as a platform to exchange ideas and promote collaboration within the broad community of researchers working in the multidisciplinary field of Computational Chemistry, who are sharing a bottom-up approach (from micro-to macroscale) to the modeling of complex molecular systems.
