Motivation
This workshop will launch the process of identifying the next wave of
beamlines at the DOE light source NSLS-II. The goals of this workshop will
be to identify the current grand scientific challenges, review the ability
of the current suite of NSLS-II beamlines to address these challenges, and
develop concepts for world-leading capabilities and novel approaches to fill
the identified gaps.
The breakout sessions on Day 2 will include an open discussion session
during which five-minute 'soundbite' presentations are encouraged. To
contribute such a soundbite, please email a title and abstract, including
your name and affiliation and the breakout session name, to
newscience2019@bnl.gov by
October 7, 2019.
