Funds are requested in support of the 2024 American Conference on Theoretical Chemistry. Funds are being requested from the Department of Energy in support of conference registration fees for graduate student and post-doctoral researcher registration fees. This conference will be held in North Carolina, and between 200 and 250 participants are expected. This is the major North American meeting of theoretical chemists, showcasing diverse developments in all aspects of modern theory, including methods development and applications. Applications span all aspects of chemistry, biochemistry, and materials science, including important applications to energy science. The conference will include four days of seminars and poster sessions. As well as serving as a meeting ground for sharing scientific developments and discoveries, the meeting also serves as a locus for mentoring and career development involving younger scientists. The meeting will be chaired by Prof. David Beratan of Duke University, and he will be assisted by other faculty from the region: Profs. Weitao Yang (Duke), Patrick Charbonneau (Duke), Yosuke Kanai (University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill), Zhiyue Lu (University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill), and Elena Jakubikova (North Carolina State University). This group will form a conference commitee that will define thematic topics for the conference, will invite speakers, and will assist with running the conference.
