On April 26-28th April 2017, over 30 participants from 5 departments attended CNIE/SAXSLAB workshops organised by (CNIE) and Dr Isja de Feijter (SAXSLAB) to provide essential training for SAXS users.聽

The workshops covered scattering theory, experimental techniques, and software tutorial sessions, with an inspiring keynote talk from Prof Battaglia on molecular engineering.聽

Half a day of the workshop was dedicated to data processing and enabled participants to maximise the information gained from the SAXS technique. It also provided a platform for a new SAXS user group to exchange tips and ideas.聽

What did students, researchers and staff have to say about the sessions:

" Ciro Lopez Vazquez (PhD, 果冻影院 Chemistry)聽鈥淚 found SAXS workshop very helpful as a new user. Data processing session was of high importance; it gives you better understanding of what your data represents. 鈥�

" Nadir Basma (PhD, Imperial College and 果冻影院 Physics)聽鈥淭he workshop was great. Han鈥檚 talk was absolutely brilliant and exactly what I was looking for. It covered all grounds and was an excellent refresher.鈥澛�

" Max Besenhard (Postdoc, 果冻影院 Chem Eng)聽鈥淭he hands-on session was very useful. I appreciated very much to learn more about our instrument, what's in the data, and what to take care of etc.鈥澛�

" Barry Reid (PhD,果冻影院 Chem Eng)聽鈥淚t was a perfect balance between fundamental theory, data analysis and applications. I was even able to perform some GI-SAXS analysis on some of my samples which was an excellent learning experience.鈥�

" Antony Omita (PhD, 果冻影院 School of Pharmacy)聽鈥淧rof Battaglia gave a brilliant talk, with great real life applications of SAXS in drug delivery. I would definitely recommend the workshop to both SAXS users as well as the newcomers.鈥�

" Isil Akpinar (PhD, 果冻影院 Chem Eng)聽鈥淭hank you for organizing this kind of workshops.鈥�

" Prof. Asterios Gavriilidis (果冻影院 Chem Eng)聽鈥淭he SAXS workshop was very useful, as it provided information on the SAXS technique development, and presented the fundamentals and the capabilities of the methods in a clear and simple way. The speakers were enthusiastic and engaged very well with the audience, answering all questions posed to them.鈥�
