Event:

• In order to encourage young molecular modellers at the beginning of their careers, the MGMS would like to extend an invitation to any PhD students who wish to present their work on any aspect of computational chemistry or computational biology at the 2015 Young Modellers' Forum. Other members of the modelling community are are strongly encouraged to attend this event as it is your opportunity to see these talented young modellers and to assist us in the evaluation of the prizes. There is also the chance to discuss the talks afterwards in the pub!
  
  
• This year there will be twelve oral presentations and twelve posters during the day, so there will be plenty to see and hear! Prizes will be awarded to the best presentations. Take a look at the past prize winners of the YMF.
  
  
• Lightning Talks: Each of the poster presenters will be given 2 minutes (and one slide) to promote their poster and try to tempt people to come and read it!

General Registration:

If you are unable to view the online form, then follow this link to the registration form. If you have any problems registering, or wish to change an existing registration (or if you have any questions), please contact Louise Birch.

Registering to give an Oral or Poster Presentation:

Students interested in giving oral or poster presentations should first fill in the general registration form (above) and indicate their preference in the appropriate section. Once registered, abstracts may be submitted at any time before the abstract deadline (5pm, Friday 9th October). The abstract (preferably in .doc or .docx format) should adhere to the YMF abstract guidelines, which can be downloaded as a Word Document file or as a PDF, and be sent to Louise Birch. You should receive confirmation of receipt of your abstract within 7 days. You must be registered to be considered for a presentation slot.

We will endeavour to give you the presentation preference you indicate but due to the small number of oral/poster slots available, we are not able to guarantee this.

Deadlines

Abstract deadline is 5pm Friday, 9th October, 2015.

Travel expenses:

As an event funded by donations, we have limited resources at our disposal. We aim to make a contribution towards travel expenses for presenters but this may not completely cover the costs incurred.
