The Universidad Industrial de Santander (UIS) is hosting from October 24 to October 26 students and professionals from different national and international universities as participants in the training workshop entitled “Characterization of materials of industrial interest using the Powder Diffraction File (PDF-5+) database”. This event is held as a preamble to the II International School of Crystallography: Single Crystal X-Ray Diffraction, which will take place from October 28 to November 1, 2024.
The event, organized by the UIS X-ray Laboratory, aims to provide participants with the necessary knowledge on the structural characterization of materials through X-ray diffraction techniques of polycrystalline samples. This approach is fundamental for the research and development of new materials with applications in various industries.
Featured speakers include renowned experts in the field of crystallography, such as Dr. José Antonio Henao from UIS, Dr. Graciela Díaz de Delgado and Dr. Miguel Delgado from Universidad de Los Andes in Venezuela, Dr. Mario Alberto Macías from UNIANDES, Renato Figueira da Silva from Bruker and Luciano Santos from Rigaku Americas Corporation.
This event promises to be an excellent opportunity to learn and share knowledge about advanced materials characterization techniques, contributing to academic and professional growth in the area of crystallography.
