Structural Analysis Tools Available at Penn

The University of Pennsylvania is hosting a workshop on structural research tools (x-ray scattering, electron microscopy, ion beam scattering) available at the Laboratory for Research on the Structure of Matter (LRSM). The workshop is designed for faculty at primarily undergraduate institutions in the Delaware Valley whose research projects may benefit from such tools. As part of a grant from the National Science Foundation, Penn will be able to offer reduced-rate access to these facilities for such faculty. More details are available at http://www.lrsm.upenn.edu/events/st09/ . The workshop will be held on January 6, 2010 and is free. However, pre-registration is required. Additional information can also be obtained by contacting Dr. Paul Heiney at heiney@sas.upenn.edu.
