The 55th Midwest Theoretical Chemistry Conference (MWTCC55) will take place between May 29 and May 31, 2025, on the campus of Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan. We are proud that this is the first time Wayne State University will host this event.

MWTCC55 will cover a broad spectrum of topics in modern theoretical and computational chemistry, including but not limited to electronic structure, quantum/classical dynamics, statistical mechanics, computational materials, computational biochemistry, and quantum computing. It aims to bring together theoretical and computational chemists primarily from the Midwest region, broadly defined, to foster interactions and dialogs in the community.
