Meet an Expert… Virtually! | Explore Your Universe

http://www.exploreyouruniverse.org/meet-an-expert-virtually

March 8, 2013. Meet an Expert… Virtually! Over the last few months we’ve taken over 50 scientists in to the fold of Explore Your Universe and teamed them up with the science centres, so that the public and schools can meet the people answering some pretty Big Questions, e.g. why is there a Universe? Was there ever life on Mars? How can we design smart materials? How can we design better treatments for cancer? Check out the events section. To get us started I’m posting this profile on behalf of one ...

SAS Abstracts: about blogs, the future and Ultra-SAXS. The future, according to 1939. Image in the public domain. Source: https:/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:PRR S1.jpg. With the SAS conference approaching (have you registered yet? Many of us are looking forward to the excellent talks, posters and coffee sessions (a terribly important, but often overlooked aspect of conferences). I submitted a few abstracts for talks, which have been converted to posters instead (TODO: make three posters! Furthermore, one...

High Heels in the Lab: The Real Deal

http://highheelsinthelab.blogspot.com/p/the-real-deal.html

High Heels in the Lab. The blog of a female scientist who owns too many pairs of shoes and her musings about the world. All views are my own. There are loads of incredible female scientists out there, achieving amazing successes and loving their jobs. Sometimes we all need a little more positivity, so this series of posts aims to highlight individual women in science and tell their stories. If you're a woman in science and you'd like to feature on this page, please get in touch. Dr Katie Mack, Cosmologist.

About SA(X)S – Looking At Nothing

http://www.lookingatnothing.com/index.php/about-saxs

If you are not familiar with small-angle scattering, this may be a good place to start. Update: check out this review paper. Which discusses most aspects of SAXS data collection, all possible data correction steps and has a few remarks on the subsequent data fitting steps. Besides this introductory text, there is also a good write-up here. Which is a little more in-depth and expansive. Like its sister technique, diffraction, small-angle scattering charcterises lengths in a sample. Simply said, small ...

Holiday post: Ultra-SAXS version 2 drawing. Side view of Ultra-SAXS instrument version 2. Side view of Ultra-SAXS instrument version 2. Click to enlarge. I am on holiday at the moment, so the blog posts will be a little bit more brief than usual. However, not less exciting! The drawing has been made largely by assembling component drawings made by my father for version 1, and technical drawings from the manufacturers of the COTS components. Be the first to comment.
