Motivation

We invite all to join us for the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-ll) and Center for Functional Nanomaterials (CFN) Users' Meeting from May 13–17, 2024. The meeting offers scientists from diverse disciplines an opportunity to share their work, discuss new results, and explore the latest advances in experimental capabilities in synchrotron science, nanoscale science, materials science, and biological sciences.

This year's meeting will be held as a hybrid event and will offer a plenary session, a poster session, four days of workshops, exhibitor booths, and an in-person banquet! The workshops cover a variety of scientific topics that are of importance to the user community, including multi-modal experiments, machine learning, and a number of imaging techniques that explore research in fields like materials science, clean energy, and medicine.

Meeting Format

  • Monday and Wednesday workshops (In-person only)
  • Tuesday Plenary Session (Hybrid)
  • Thursday and Friday workshops (Remote only)

This Users Meeting is open to the public and we plan to record some of the proceedings. To be eligible to attend, all participants must register online by May 1, 2024. For questions or assistance with registering, please contact the meeting coordinator.
