| Another Schrödinger Medal: The 2010 Schrödinger Medal of the World Association of Theoretical and Computational Chemists (WATOC) has been awarded to Prof. Evert Jan Baerends − my congratulations! The Schrödinger Medal is probably the highest honor that is available to researchers in the field.

| As of today, GS − and by extension the group − has been induced into the exclusive "Banned by Gaussian" club, i.e. Gaussian has chosen to deny us access to the software including executables.
For a bit of background on the underlying − in my view completely unreasonable and overblown − policies and related story, see the Wikipedia keyword GAUSSIAN. There are links to pertinent news magazine articles, the "Banned by Gaussian" website, and Gaussian's rebuttal thereof.

Anderson Graduate Award in Chemistry and the Walter and Elizabeth Rodewald Scholarship.
