Two Workshops are planned prior to Welcome Reception on Monday, July 28th.
Workshop 1: Benefits and Pitfall of Chemistry Outreach (11am-1pm).
This workshop targets senior graduate students and postdocs seeking positions in academia. Personal experiences and different approaches to outreach from faculty at various career stage will be shared followed by open floor discussions.
Workshop 2: In-situ Diffraction Studies of Synthesis (2pm-4.30pm).
This workshop targets researchers interested in utilizing in-situ studies for synthesis. Several speakers will discuss fundamental and practical aspects of the application of in-situ scattering to the science of synthesis focusing on application of synchrotron and neutron-based techniques. What information in-situ experiment can and cannot provides, how reproducible it is, how to maximize chances of obtaining useful information, how to bypass high entrance barriers, and many other questions will be discussed.
Workshops participation is free of charge for registered NASSCС participants. Please use the link below to indicate your interest in either one or both of workshops. We are looking forward to seeing you in Ames.
