The 13th Canadian Chemical Crystallography Workshop will be taking place at the University of Calgary preceding CCCE2022. This workshop is targeted towards chemistry graduate students and post docs who would benefit from an improved understanding of the basic theory and practice of structure determination using single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The goal of the workshop is to develop skills in the critical assessment of single crystal X-ray structures.
CPDW will be running as the “Canadian Powder Diffraction Workshop 14 – Berry School” and is planned for Saturday October 30 – Tuesday November 2, 2021. A Berry School is a hands-on short course/workshop, involving powerpoint lectures notes (no printed volume) and on-site (or virtual) training on applications. It is taking place on-site (in-person) at Western University. It is being held ahead of the Geological Association of Canada – Mineralogical Association of Canada Joint Annual Meeting GAC-MAC London 2021, in London, Ontario.
The 12th Canadian Chemical Crystallography Workshop will be taking place remotely preceding IUPAC|CCCE2021. This workshop is targeted towards chemistry graduate students and post docs who would benefit from an improved understanding of the basic theory and practice of structure determination using single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The goal of the workshop is to develop skills in the critical assessment of single crystal X-ray structures.
The 2nd Canadian Materials Diffraction Workshop (CMDW2021) will be taking place virtually. The workshop is targeted towards engineering and science students, postdocs and industrial researchers who would benefit from an improved understanding of the basic theory and practice of 2D and 3D diffraction for analyzing materials – alloys, thin films, polymers, coatings, minerals, etc.
The Canadian Macromolecular Crystallography Facility (CMCF) is pleased to announce a Virtual Edition of the Annual CLS MX Data Collection school. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, this year’s school will be a virtual event with lectures and data processing tutorials.
Welcome to the 13th Canadian Powder diffraction. The workshop will be held remotely, adapting to the current covid19 status. The Workshop sessions will cover the basic theory of powder diffraction, experimental setups, sample preparation and data analysis. Other diffraction and scattering techniques will also be presented, appropriate for the characterization of powders, thin films, single crystals, nanostructured and disordered materials. The programs GSAS-II, pdfGUI and MAX3D will be introduced during the presentations and used in the afternoon’s practical sessions
The 11th Canadian Chemical Crystallography Workshop was scheduled to be hosted by the University of Winnipeg, Winnipeg, immediately preceding the 103rd Canadian Chemistry Conference and Exhibition (Winnipeg, MB, May 24-28, 2020). Consistent with the decision made by the Canadian Society for Chemistry with respect to CCCE2020, and out of concern for the health of our participants, instructors, and the larger community, the in-person component of CCCW20 has been cancelled, however, a virtual event is going ahead. and is targeted towards chemistry graduate students and post docs who would benefit from an improved understanding of the basic theory and practice of structure determination using single crystal X-ray diffraction methods.
The 1st Canadian Materials Diffraction Workshop (CMDW2019) will be hosted by University of New Brunswick, Fredericton, NB, Canada and the Marine Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence, UNB Faculty of Engineering.
Participation in the Workshop will be limited to approximately 30 participants. This will ensure plenty of facetime for participants to interact with Speakers and Instructors to mingle and exchange about currents trends in materials diffraction while learning/reviewing the basics of the field and software.
The Canadian Macromolecular Crystallography Facility (CMCF) is pleased to announce an intensive 5-day hands-on synchrotron data collection school at the Canadian Light Source. Participants will attend a series of lectures and be actively engaged in macromolecular crystallography (Mx) data collection at CMCF beamlines. Special Topic: Structure Solution with Dr. Brian Mark, University of Manitoba.
The 10th Canadian Chemical Crystallography Workshop will be hosted by Concordia University, Montreal, QC, Canada. The Workshop will be held immediately preceeding the 6th Crystal Engineering and Emerging Materials Workshop of Ontario and Quebec (Concordia; May 30–June 1, 2019) and the 102nd Canadian Chemistry Conference and Exhibition (Quebec City, QC, June 3-7, 2019) and is targeted towards chemistry graduate students and post docs who would benefit from an improved understanding of the basic theory and practice of structure determination using single crystal X-ray diffraction methods.
