Chemical Computing Group (CCG) and the American Chemical Society's (ACS) Division of Computers in Chemistry (COMP) have congratulated the winners of the CCG Excellence Awards at the 232nd ACS National Meeting in San Francisco, California.
The well-regarded CCG Excellence Award honors graduate students who have excelled in the field of computational chemistry.
Winners are selected according to the distinction and relevance of their research, as well as the quality of supporting materials.
CCG will finance each awardee for travel costs to San Francisco for the Fall 2006 ACS; will recognize their research at the Awards Presentation during the COMP Division Poster Session on Tuesday September 12, 2006; and will give a one-year license for their software, the Molecular Operating Environment.
