When you go to a crystallisation conference and the theme pats you on the head #IUCr2023 Livia Salvati Manni #crystals

Diamond Light Source & Friends IUCr2023 🐨🦘This week it's been great to see hundreds of crystallographers from all around the globe, to meet congress chair Michael W Parker from University of Melbourne & to catch-up with our colleagues from CCP-EM ccp4_mx and Brookhaven Lab! lightsources.org

Big night out at the Museum! Don’t forget we have our last plenary at 9 am today #IUCr2023

One of the best outcomes of the #BigDiamond was seeing all the delegates coming together not because they worked in the same field or came from the same part of the world, but just because they all wanted to be part of something really crazy. #BraggYourPattern #IUCr2023

Crystallographers do it better 😎💎 #IUCr2023 So much fun for the celebrating party of IUCr2023 last night!

Our third plenary lecture is by Mark Spackman from UWA #IUCr2023

A big thank you to rcsb pdb 💉🧬💻🔬💊🌱🧠🦠, Protein Data Bank, PDBj_en and Daniel Eriksson, for providing resources for the #BraggYourPattern Crystal-A-Con Monoclinic activity and displays IUCr2023

Last session of a 9 day conference, but Crystallography in Space Research is packed - some excellent speakers put together by Tuan Vu and Tom Runčevski #IUCr2023

"The fun in science lies not in discovering facts, but in discovering new ways of thinking of them"- WL Bragg. Giant diamonds, lollies galore, diffuse scattering, and photocrystallography- #IUCr2023 had it all! #BraggYourPattern

It's been a great conference IUCr2023, in one of my favourite cities in the world 🇦🇺 Looking forwards to IUCr2026 already! 🇨🇦

Gathering one last time for the closing ceremony 🥲 #IUCr2023

Closing ceremony #IUCr2023

And it is all over - on to IUCr2026

Rest well little Koala 🐨#IUCr2023

Recent project: I teamed up with an international crystallography conference taking place in Australia (@iucr2023) to create a design for Lawrence Bragg that represents Bragg's law of X-ray diffraction. Wonderful people to work with & the shirt is now available in my shop ✌️

Registration open for the big Biomolecular Horizons Meeting for 2024 in Melbourne.

Dear all, this account is no longer regularly monitored. We're all now looking forward to IUCr2026, do give them a follow and plan your trip to Calgary 🇨🇦💎

Here’s one for the International day of girls and women in science 😀 Nice memories from the Women in Crystallography activities at the IUCr2023 and European Crystallographic Association (ECA) in Oviedo.

A little hint for IUCr2026 - commissioning a Lindo Patterson T-shirt from Megan Lee for the Canadian meeting would be a GREAT way to follow Australia's IUCr2023 Bragg T-shirt..... Louise Dawe #crystallography IUCr #BraggYourPattern
