Since its inception in 1990 by David Clary, the Quantum Reactive Scattering (QRS) Workshop has evolved into a highly regarded forum for the international community studying molecular collisions and chemical reactivity. Across its successive editions, the QRS conference has consistently attracted leading scientists and emerging researchers alike—including theoreticians, computational chemists and physicists, as well as experimentalists—providing an environment that encourages open exchange, critical discussion, and the formation of lasting collaborations.
