      CPMD Workshop

      This is a workshop focusing on the computational chemistry software package named CPMD used for calculating ab-initio molecular dynamics, with topics ranging from materials science to metadynamics. The conference is aimed at scientists, academics, researchers, and industry experts, and provides a forum for defining the dominant trends in the field for the next years.

      Extending the limits of ab-initio Molecular Dynamics Simulations for Materials Science and Biophysics

      Date

      Sep 05, 2011 - Sep 09, 2011

      Location

      Barcelona, Spain

      This international meeting is intended to review the state of the art in the area of Ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) and to clarify the dominant trends in the field for next years. At this workshop, PMI scientists present their results on the theoretical investigations of the pyrolysis in the gas phase and at solid surfaces of humectants used in tobacco industries.

      Reduced Risk Products ("RRPs”) is the term we use to refer to products that present, are likely to present, or have the potential to present less risk of harm to smokers who switch to these products versus continuing smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. All of our RRPs are smoke-free products that deliver nicotine with far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
