2010 SAC Review
The 2010
call for NSLS-II beamline development proposals generated 54 proposals.
Each proposal is assigned to one of seven
Science Advisory
Committee (SAC) study panels in specific areas of science and technology:
- Biological and
Environmental Chemistry, meeting July 8-9, 2010
- Materials Science, July
12-13, 2010
- Advanced Engineering
Materials Studies, July 13-14, 2010

20-21, 2010
- Structural Chemistry and
Catalysis, July 21-22, 2010
- Imaging and Microscopy,
July 29-30, 2010
Members of the SAC study panels are listed
here.
The full SAC will convene on August 12-13, 2010, to consider and discuss the
reports from the seven study panels and to make overall recommendations.
