Speaker: Stergios Zarkogiannis, Leibniz Centre for Tropical Marine Research Abstract: Planktonic foraminifera are single-celled marine organisms that build calcite shells and have done so since the Jurassic (~200 Ma). Their shells preserve a rich archive of past ocean conditions through geochemical…
Read MoreSpeaker: Dr. Weiwei He, NYU Abu Dhabi, UAE Abstract: RNA is dynamic biopolymer whose structures, motions, and interactions underlie molecular recognition, gene regulation, and catalysis. Connecting these dynamics to function in native, ion-rich environments remains difficult. Solution-based…
Read MoreAbout: This introductory workshop is intended for students and professionals who are interested in the use of advanced characterization methods in heritage science, but feel a bit lost as to where to begin! We have brought together a panel of experts, who use a range of x-ray and neutron techniques…
Read MoreSpeaker: Nayomi Plaza, Materials Research Engineer, USDA Forest Service, USA Abstract: Wood is a complex hygroscopic material with multiple levels of structure that influence its properties and ultimately, performance. Yet, our understanding of the relationship between wood nanostructure and its…
Read MoreSpeaker: Prof Andrew Boothroyd, Oxford University Abstract: Over the past two decades, topology has become an increasingly valuable tool in condensed matter research, providing a radically different way of thinking about materials and enabling the prediction and discovery of exotic states with…
Read MoreSpeaker: Laurent Chapon and David Stuart, Diamond Light Source, UK Abstract: We will present the Diamond Light Source, its operation, the experimental capabilities available to academic and industrial users, and the scientific programme in Physical and Life Sciences. We will also present the plan…
Read MoreSpeaker: Philip Willmott, PSI SLS, Switzerland Abstract: The SLS was for over a decade the benchmark synchrotron facility regarding its performance relative to the theoretical optimal value, given the machine parameters. However, with the advent of a new-generation of storage rings, dubbed…
Read MoreSpeaker: Andrey Shavorskiy, MAX IV Laboratory About: This seminar, led by an experienced beamline scientist, provides a practical introduction to effective proposal writing for synchrotron and large-scale research facilities. Participants will gain insight into how proposals are evaluated, with…
Read MoreSpeaker: Prof Andrew Harrison, Director of Science, Extreme Light Infrastructure ELI ERIC Abstract: CERIC-ERIC is an organization that provides a single point of access to a collection of large-scale research infrastructures, including synchrotron and neutron scattering beamlines, ion-beams and…
Read MoreSpeaker: Sylvain Prévost, Institut Laue-Langevin, France Biography: Sylvain F. Prévost currently works at the Institut Laue Langevin (ILL). Sylvain does research in Condensed Matter Physics and Physical Chemistry, and is now moving towards complex structures in biology and biorelated soft matter.
Read MoreSpeaker: Ben Boyd, Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Monash University Abstract: Scattering as an enabling technique is gaining momentum. The technique is especially well suited to out-of-equilibrium lipid systems of interest for drug delivery. With synchrotron sources the format is only…
Read MoreSpeaker: Clarissa Cagnato, Archéologie des Amériques, France Abstract: In the context of archaeology, seeds and other plant components are frequently unearthed in association with the preparation, consumption, and discarding of food. While seeds and other plant components can be identified to a…
