Australian Synchrotron Research Forum and Workshop - University of Adelaide
Date and time
Location
Description
Scientific research and innovation at the Australian Synchrotron spans a huge diversity of activities from medical and life sciences to advanced materials and engineering, and from earth and environmental sciences to accelerator science and synchrotron research methods.
Please join us for a showcase of outstanding research by University of Adelaide scientists that has been facilitated by the Australian Synchrotron and the International Access Program. The forum will also highlight the capabilities afforded by ANSTO’s Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering (ACNS).
The session is ideal for potential new users of all levels as well as those looking for an update on synchrotron activities.
Draft program
This is an indicative program subject to change. Please check back for updates. The final program will be circulated to registrants prior to the session.
