This scientific meeting is the forth event in the series of conferences we started in 2002 and successfully continued in 2004 and 2006. Now, we find it important to continue this series in order to keep and extend the contacts with Humboldtians and junior scientists working in the broad field of Computational chemistry. As previously, the meeting will be organized by Dr. Tzonka Mineva (UMR5253, Institut Charles Gerhardt Montpellier, CNRS, France) and Prof. Georgi Vayssilov (Faculty of Chemistry, University of Sofia, Bulgaria). For this forth conference we aim to include a special session on bio- and medical applications of computational chemistry, which will be organized and chaired by Prof. Ilza Pajeva (Centre of Biomedical Engineering, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences). Computational chemistry tools have clearly established their applicability in apparently different brunches of chemistry, physics, biology, pharmacy, medicine, nanotechnologies, etc. The conference is intended to attract scientists from those different fields both working on development and validation of computational protocols and in the practical application of computational methods to elucidate and help understanding new experimental findings both of fundamental and applied importance. Although we will keep inviting participants from all the computational chemistry branches, we plan for this year conference to accent on two aspects: (1) nanomaterials and solid surfaces, and (2) bio- and medical chemistry. The scientific program of the conference will combine invited plenary (8) and keynote (10) lectures and oral (16) contributions of participants. In addition, an important component of the conference will be two poster sessions covering all aspects of computational chemistry.
