Dr Deng and his co-authors were delighted by the good news. He said: 'This award is a great acknowledgement for the value of our work, and a great encouragement for me to apply my knowledge of diffraction and crystallography in my career.' He will receive the PANalytical Award in Shanghai, China, where he is currently working. More details can be found at http://www.panalytical.com/News/Winner-fifth-PANalytical-Award-Yue-Deng.htm.
