Half-day seminar / Teaser for the course package

About
Are you curious on how MAX IV and ESS can be used for medical research and innovation? This half day seminar will give an introduction to the different techniques such as infrared microscopy, x-ray tomography, scanning X-ray fluorescence, solution and surface scattering of x-rays and neutrons from biological samples, which will be available at MAX IV and ESS. During the seminar examples of medical and biomedical research projects will be used to illustrate the use of the different techniques. 

The seminar can be used as the first part of course module I in the ‘MAX IV and ESS-based imaging for medical and biomedical research’, course package at Lund university.

Application period and course date
Information on the dates for 2020 will be published here soon.
