Accelrys Nanotechnology Consortium - Events

Fourth Annual Nanotechnology Consortium Meeting

Following a very successful Phase I, supported by over 29 members worldwide, Accelrys has launched Phase II. New plans for Phase II were discussed at the 2007 Nanotechnology Consortium Annual Meeting, which was held at the University College Dublin (Ireland) between the 10th and the 11th of September.

 

Third Annual Nanotechnology Consortium Meeting

This meeting took place in Baltimore, Maryland on 15-17 November 2006, immediately following the Accelrys User Meeting and Conference. Members were updated on Consortium progress, networked, heard presentations on applications, received presentations and were invited to present their work at the meeting.

 

Second Annual Nanotechnology Consortium Meeting

The annual Nanotechnology Consortium Meeting overlapped the final day of AccelrysWorld 2005. The afternoon of the 16th November was an open session for non-members to find out more about the Consortium and meet a few Consortium Members.

The Consortium Members' meeting was well attended by 19 Members representing 12 Member organisations. Also there were 9 advisors and invited speakers and 12 Accelrys staff supported the meeting in various roles, including the whole 5-strong nanotech team.

The meeting agenda included a session on 16th Nov which was open to all delegates of AccelrysWorld. The impression in general was that this was very successful, and very well attended by more than 50 delegates. The presentations by Prof Jaime Ferrer, Mike Payne, Sharon Glotzer and Andrei Gusev stimulated a lot of debate about issues such as the accuracy of electron transport calculations, the pros and cons of various hybrid approaches, and where mesoscale simulations are going.

 

First Annual Nanotechnology Consortium Meeting

The first Nanotechnology Consortium Meeting took place on 3-6 October 2004, at the famous New York Athletics Club on Central Park, Manhattan. The three-day event brought together scientists with an interest in driving forward the development and application of software tools to support the vision of "Nanomaterials by Design."
