Simon is awarded this honour “for a decisive contribution to making the pair distribution function a widely useful tool for structural and materials science.” His work has transformed how we understand the atomic structure of materials and continues to push the boundaries of crystallography and materials science. 

We cordially invite you to participate in next Distinguished Lectures on Quantum Crystallography and Complementary Fields which will be presented online. This time we will have two lectures which will start at 4 pm CET on the 3 October 2024.
