Recommended summer school
Telluride Science Research Center runs some great programs each northern summer, mostly with a chemistry orientation. One I would recommend, especially to physics postdocs and graduate students who want to see how quantum and stat. mech. is relevant to chemistry is the Telluride School of Theoretical Chemistry which will run July 10-16 next year.
