Computational Center for Molecular Computational Center for Molecular Structure and Interactions (CCMSI)Structure and Interactions (CCMSI) is is funded by the National Science Foundation funded by the National Science Foundation (CREST program). The main goal of the (CREST program). The main goal of the Center is to establish a strong research and Center is to establish a strong research and educational program in computational educational program in computational chemistry. The faculty members involved in chemistry. The faculty members involved in this Center conduct collaborative research this Center conduct collaborative research on the development of efficient on the development of efficient computational methodologies and their computational methodologies and their application to the study of structures and application to the study of structures and properties of molecules ranging from model properties of molecules ranging from model systems to large biomolecules. Three systems to large biomolecules. Three activities, focusing on applications of high-activities, focusing on applications of high-performance computational techniques are performance computational techniques are being carried out in the Center. These being carried out in the Center. These activities include: predictions of such activities include: predictions of such phenomena as electric response properties in phenomena as electric response properties in conjugated chains, dynamics of ureic conjugated chains, dynamics of ureic compound, conformational properties of compound, conformational properties of esters and amides, and interactions of nucleic esters and amides, and interactions of nucleic and acid bases with polar solvents. and acid bases with polar solvents.
A major activity of the Center is focused A major activity of the Center is focused on graduate students entering the recently on graduate students entering the recently approved Ph.D. program in chemistry and on approved Ph.D. program in chemistry and on lectures, workshops, seminar series, editing a lectures, workshops, seminar series, editing a book series and international scientific book series and international scientific journals in the area of computational journals in the area of computational chemistry and summer research programs for chemistry and summer research programs for undergraduate students. Training includes undergraduate students. Training includes mentoring of undergraduate and graduate mentoring of undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral fellows.students and postdoctoral fellows.
