Ultrafast X-ray Summer Seminar (UXSS)

UXSS is an annual event jointly organized by the Stanford PULSE
Institute at SLAC and the Center for Free-Electron Laser Science (CFEL)
at DESY. UXSS is intended to introduce students and postdocs to the
latest science that is enabled by novel X-ray Free Electron Lasers. The
program will be highly interdisciplinary, with topics ranging from
materials physics to structural biology. The list of confirmed speakers
can be found below. There will also be a coursework exercise involving
a mock proposal for the LCLS, with the help of experienced mentors.
