School of Crystallization and Polymorphism

This course will deal with theoretical aspects of physico-chemical knowledge of crystallization methods and crystallography, applied to crystal growth, crystal structural characterization, materials science, industrial crystallization, nanotechnology and pharmaceutical drugs. Practical aspects will include handling database tools for the crystallization and determination of molecular structures. Experience will be gained in the use of specific crystallography and pharmaceutical databases.
This kind of school (the first one in Costa Rica) is very useful for post-graduate students with intensive courses giving an overview of crystallization and polymorphism.
