Seminar on Synchrotron light sources - Come and learn how brighter beams help us to explore the heart of materials.
As well as being a new word in our vocabulary, synchrotrons are scientific facilities generating x-ray beams through acceleration of electrons to nearly the speed of light. These x-rays are a thousand billion times brighter than hospital x-ray machines and enable scientists to look at the molecular and atomic composition of the world around us. They offer a range of techniques that will undoubtedly impress and inspire you, from a better understanding of diseases to new drugs, new materials, safer engineering components or solution to environmental problems.
Â
Come and join Dr Thomas Sorensen from Diamond in the UK and Dr Paul Dumas from Soleil in France, who will take you on a journey from drug development using protein crystallography to imaging cancer cells using infrared micro spectroscopy.Â
Because seeing is understanding...
