*HERCULES 2018**- European School*
/28 Years of Neutron & Synchrotron Radiation Science/
*2018 **session**:**/ 25 February-30 March, 2018/*
/*UPDATED DEADLINE FOR APPLICATION: 25 October 2017*/
HERCULES is a European course for PhD students and young
researchers using *Neutrons* and *Synchrotron Radiation* for
applications in *Biology*, *Chemistry*, *Physics*, *Hard & Soft
Condensed Matter*.
The 1-month school includes *lectures* (60%), *hands-on practicals*
and *tutorials* at partner institutes (*Elettra* and *FERMI* in Trieste,
Italy, *ESRF*, *ILL* in Grenoble, *Soleil* and *LLB* in Paris-Saclay,
*PSI* in Villigen, Switzerland) and Grenoble Laboratories (CEA, CNRS,
EMBL, IBS). (*)
(*) also, participation of DESY and the European XFEL to be confirmed
for 2018 due to scheduled down-time.
The school includes a common part and two parallel sessions:
- /*Biomolecular, soft condensed matter structure & dynamics*/
- /*Physics and chemistry of condensed matter*/
*
/ Why join Hercules//?
/*- to *learn new techniques using neutron and synchrotron radiation*
- to expand your *theoretical *and*practical *knowledge, /not only for
your present research but for your scientific career/
- to *experiment these techniques* on world-class instruments & beamlines
- to build a network of relations with fellow young researchers and
experienced teachers from all around the World
/*Bursaries/reduced costs*/
- A limited number of bursaries will be available either to reduce
registration fees or cover travel costs.
