Singapore software workshop

A five-day workshop and training course on crystallographic software programs was conducted at the X-ray Diffraction Lab of the National U. of Singapore by Ludger Häming, Bruker AXS, Germany, Oct. 16-20, 2000. Two days devoted to the SHELXTL software for structure solution, refinement and preparation of figures and tables were attended by more than 40 novice users, and 20 postgraduate students were given hands-on tutorials in the X-ray Diffraction Laboratory. This was followed by a three-day training session for advanced users on various aspects of the single crystal X-ray diffractometer SMART APEX CCD.
