The International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science (IAQMS) was created in Menton in 1967, with Professors Raymond Daudel (France), Per-Olov Löwdin (Sweden), Robert G. Parr (USA), John A. Pople (USA), and Bernard Pullman (France) as its founding members, under the inspiration and with the support of Professor Louis de Broglie (France).
