NVK symposium was a great success!

On 24.11.2023 we held our annual general meeting of the NVK (ALV) at the Amsterdam Science Park organized by Roland Bliem and the ARCNL institute. Apart from the official ALV, the day was full of scientific talks and exchange, as we embedded it into our autumn symposium, this year on the topic of ‘Crystallography in Materials’. We had an exciting panel of speakers especially Ruud den Adel (Unilever), Tom de Vries (Nijmegen), Mirijam Zobel (Aachen), Alexey Pustovarenko (Malvern Panalytical), Adrian Graham (ESA/ESTEC) and Jarek Mazurek (Ardena).

A sphere impression of the day!

Special thanks belong to our speakers of the young researcher session (Grisha Shipunov (UvA), Falk Pabst (UvA) and Charlotte Vrolijk (Maastricht)), which was a great success and gave our next generation researcher a platform to discuss their achievements.

Find the full program here. If you got curious, please join our next Symposium in Spring 2024! Details will follow.  

 

 

 

We invite you for our symposium ‘Crystallography in Materials’

It’s time again for the yearly NVK symposium and Algemene Leden Vergadering (ALV)! We cordially invite you to our autumn symposium focusing on ‘Crystallography in Materials’ at the Matrix ONE building in Amsterdam. Find more information and register here. Feel free to spread the word, and take your colleagues, students and fellow researcher along.

Next up: NVK Young Researchers Retreat

On September 29th and 30th, 2022, we are organizing the NVK Young Researchers Retreat! Please find the preliminary program and registration details here.

All participants will present their work, both PhD students and early researchers working in industry or industry are welcome to contribute, which will result in a wonderful and inspiring program! Our key-note speaker, Dr. Yesid A. Ramirez, will talk about his research related to . Additionally there will be plenty of time to network with our sponsors from industry, and of course with your fellow young crystallographers. Also, the career session will provide a overview of career options and plenty of time to discuss these with people who have been in the field for a longer time, both industry and academic science.

In short: interesting science, plenty of options to network, think a bit about your future career, and of course we will have a lot of fun! We hope to see you there!

Registrations are open!

Please register for the NVK symposium on “Reflections on Diffraction”. PhD students and early postdocs are also welcome to register for the Young Researchers Retreat 2022.

The symposium and ALV will be held on June 17th in Utrecht. Find more information about the day full of interesting lectures and the possibility to meet up again with old friends and colleagues here.

The Young Researchers Retreat will be held on September 29th and 30th in Nunspeet. Find more information about those two days packed with crystallography, a lot of fun and an excellent opportunity for networking with fellow young scientists here.

First NVK Young Researchers Retreat

The first NVK Young Researchers Retreat (YRR) will be held on 29th and 30th of September 2022 in Nunspeet! The event will consist of two days with talks, a lot of fun, poster presentations and it is an excellent opportunity to network with fellow young scientists in the broad field of crystallography. You can find more information here. Registrations open soon!

Registration YRR2022 open soon

Registration for the Online Powder Diffraction School on November 24th – 26th, 2020 is closed.

It is no longer possible to register for the NVK Online Powder Diffraction School 2020, that will take place online from November 24th to 26th. With this online workshop+school on Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD) we intend to help participants to overcome the barriers to look into their data in greater detail. In a 3-day intensive course the participant will learn the basic theory behind powder diffraction and how crystallographic analysis of PXRD data may help them to answer concrete questions on the material of their subject.
Check out the course page for more information.
