Target audience

PhD students and Postdocs working in structural science. The workshop is intended to provide an introduction to SAXS in the lab and at the synchrotron. Standard data analysis will be introduced as well as approaches to custom-made numerical modelling. Some lectures will include demos and the workshop finishes with a lab tour. The participants are welcome to attend the meeting of the Swiss Society for Crystallography at UZH the day after the workshop.
