Synopsis
Five speakers (scientists and beamline scientists) will give practical advice and guidance to synchrotron users in all stages of the beamtime: pre-experiments, experiments, and post-experiments. Lunch is included!
The workshop aims to answer pragmatic questions that new and experienced synchrotron users may have when trying to optimize their beamtime. These include finding a suitable beamline, access modes to synchrotrons, proposal writing, designing, and conducting an experiment, troubleshooting during the measurement, and post-experiment activities. As such, the workshop is suited for a range of audiences: first-time users, researchers without immediate contact at synchrotrons, advanced users aiming to improve their use of beamtime, and users from the industry. Five speakers, researchers, and beamline scientists will share their advice and provide guidance in a form of short lectures followed by discussion rounds. The audience can learn how to optimize beamtime for various applications, including operando scattering and spectroscopy, macromolecular crystallography, small molecule crystallography, industrially relevant applications. During lunch, there will be time for further discussions with speakers, be it specific questions on the technique or what can we learn from other techniques.
