Aerosols are small particles (less than 100 micron in diameter) that contain a myriad of organic molecules, including water, salts, lipids, and even viruses and bacteria.
Join Rommie E. Amaro of the Airborne Institute and the University of California, San Diego as she discusses how computational simulation is providing never-before-seen views into the structure and dynamics of fine aerosols. Register now to learn how state-of-the-art simulation is allowing scientists to understand the mechanisms by which aerosols play critical roles in climate and disease.
This ACS Webinar is moderated by Kennie M. Merz Jr. of Michigan State University and the Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling and co-produced by ACS Committee on Science.

What an attendee said about this ACS Webinar!
Always happy to hear about cutting-edge research and how people are making connections between seemingly disparate processes. Here, studying ocean droplets directly impacted the work on Covid-19. Fascinating! The speaker was able to describe very esoteric techniques in an understandable manner.
