International Year of Crystallography Symposium - 17th July 2014

Published on

The School of Physical Sciences is contributing to the International Year of Crystallography Symposium on the 17th July 2014.

On the occasion of the International Year of Crystallography, join us at the University of Liverpool for a  full-day symposium dedicated to the science examining the arrangement of atoms in solids.  The three separate sessions will celebrate the University’s award of an honorary degree to Professor Dan Shechtman (Nobel Prize 2011) as well as the contributions of Charles Barkla and Sir Lawrence Bragg. Charles Barkla, a Liverpool graduate and a staff member of the University played a key role in establishing X-ray Crystallography (Nobel Prize 1917) while Lawrence Bragg established its fundamental basis (Nobel Prize 1915).

Lectures are FREE but places are limited.
