Our group attended the 11th Triennial Congress of the International Society for Theoretical Chemical Physics (ISTCP-2024) in Qingdao, Shandong Province from October 13th to 18th. ISTCP is the one of the most important conferences in the field of theoretical chemistry. This is the first time that the conference is held in China and it has attracted 616 participants from 46 countries with 222 speakers.
Prof. Chen Li gave an invited talk entitled "Improving Density Functional Approximations through Exact Constraints and Exact Wave Functions"and introduced the exciting ongoing research in our group to the audience. In the poster session, our group members had intensive and helpful discussions with other attendees who raised insightful questions and comments. After anonymous voting by invited specialists, Zhiyuan Yin's poster "Analytic structure of many-electron wave functions: a case study of model quartic potential" has been selected as one of nine Best Poster Awards among all 252 posters. He has also won ¥3000 for this prize. Congratulations to Zhiyuan!
