It is now 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. The registration form can be found here.

New NVK secretary
After being in the NVK board for more than 10 years, Martin Lutz has laid down his function as secretary. We thank Martin for all his efforts in organizing lively meetings and finding good speakers.
Martin will be succeeded by Sven Hennig, who will join the NVK board as secretary. Sven has already shown his commitment for the NVK, while organizing the 2019 Structural Biology meeting: Interacting with Proteins : A structural view. We welcome Sven in our team and look forward to a fruitful cooperation.

NVK ALV & Meeting 2020
The Dutch Crystallographic Society (NVK) will have their yearly meeting and ALV (general members meeting) on February 5, 2020 from 17:00h to 22:00h at the Antropia, Cultuur- en Congrescentrum, Hoofdstraat 8 in Driebergen.
We will start the meeting with the ALV, where we will discuss with the members what we did last year and what our plans are for the future. Then we will have a joint dinner buffet, followed by three speakers highlighting topics of present-day crystallography.
After the talks we can have a drink (or more). The ALV is open for members. Anyone else who is interested can join for dinner, talks and drinks. More details can be found here.
