Collaborating to Improve Undergrad Research in Computational Chemistry

The 2026 annual MERCURY Conference for undergraduate computational chemistry will be held the week of July 20, 2026. MERCURY is delighted to have Prof. Daniel Crawford and the Molecular Sciences Software Institute host the conference on the Virginia Tech campus in Blacksburg, VA.

The conference includes six outstanding plenary speakers, an undergraduate poster session, and evening social and networking events. The conference is an excellent forum for undergraduates to present their work and to learn from experts in the field, allowing them to put their own research into perspective. It is equally valuable as a networking event for faculty working with undergraduates. Undergraduates from all types of institutions are invited to come present their work.
