Schedule of the programme

Oviedo, Spain- Crystallographic Computing School (Tuesday 16th August to Monday 22nd August 2011)

This school will put a strong weight on fostering one-on-one interactions. Accordingly, there will be only 16 lectures of 45 minutes each plus 6 student lectures of ~20 minutes, (14 hours total) but more than 24 hours of tutorials. We will have four to eight rooms to run parallel tutorials in small groups.

We will be including a Poster Session during the School; students are encouraged to bring and display a poster describing their current research. This will present an opportunity for students to present their work in a more intimate environment than at the IUCr Congress in Madrid, but we expect these posters to be the same as those presented in the poster sessions in Madrid.
