The Center for Advanced Theory and Molecular Simulation will sponsor graduate students each year to present a talk or poster at a Theoretical Chemistry conference. These awards can be applied to defray travel/accommodation costs up to $500.

The deadline for this year's competition is August 12, 2011.

Application materials, including a brief biographical statement (with publications), an abstract of the research project to be presented, and a short budget should be sent to Professor Nancy Makri.
