The Lennard-Jones Centre-CECAM Meeting 2025, will place from 1st–5th September 2025 at the Ray Dolby Centre, Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge. This event will celebrate advances in electronic structure and Density Functional Theory, aligning with the 70th anniversary of the Theory of Condensed Matter Group in Cambridge and the 150th anniversary of the Cavendish Laboratory. The meeting will serve as a tribute to the significant contributions of Cambridge scientists such as Professors Mike Payne, Volker Heine, and Richard Needs, whose work has shaped generations of researchers both within the UK and internationally.

The meeting will feature invited session leads presenting key topics in the field, accompanied by early career researchers and contributed talks, ensuring a dynamic and forward-looking discussion. A historical session will concentrate on the legacy of UK researchers, while an industry half-day will focus on commercialisation and industry collaboration.

We encourage all interested members of CCP9 to join us. We are grateful for the support of CCP9 in making this event possible. Registration is now open, and places are expected to fill quickly.
