This summer school is designed especially for postgraduate students and postdocs, to fill in gaps of their background. The lectures and tutorials will be at a level that they should be accessible to postgraduate students in either chemistry or physics, both theoretical and experimental.
Topics to be covered include:

• molecular dynamics
• electronic structure calculations
• density functional theory
• quantum many-body theory
• molecular orbitals
• quantum dots
• Kondo effect
• quantum decoherence
• electronic properties of surfaces
