Crystallography in Poland

The organizational structure of crystallography in Poland includes the Polish Crystallographic Society, the Polish National Committee on Crystallography, the Polish Society of Crystal Growth, the Polish Society of Synchrotron Radiation and the Polish Society of Neutron Diffraction. Almost all areas of crystallography are under study in Poland including chemistry, medicine, biology, organic compounds, metal-organic, inorganic and intermetallic materials, protein crystallography, studies of crystal perfection and lattice defects, phase transitions in crystals at high and low temperatures, material science, powder methods, crystal growth, synchrotron radiation and neutron diffraction.
