Here's a thread highlighting all of the amazing women featured in these #IWD2021 #WomenInChemistry cards. I'll continue to add to this thread as I add to the series over the coming weeks and months! 🧵⬇️

Great to see this review on crystallisation methods out. A fantastic team effort from Newcastle Chemistry and NCS with Jess leading !! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Our call for applicants for our new Electron Diffraction Facility is currently live! If you already have an account you can apply via our portal2 system. If you would like to sign up email [email protected].

The first of two Rigaku XtaLAB Synergy-ED's for the NCS has arrived and is now being installed at the University of Warwick. The University of Southampton to follow soon! Exciting times for the UK Crystallography community! #3DED #Microed #crystallography

🍎Are you a school #chemistryteacher? Why not try using this engaging learning module to expose your students to the concept of crystallization through exciting practical activities! hubs.ly/Q01P86Bx0 #STEM #KS3science #KS4science #Crystallography

Last chance to get your applications in for the next service period including those for our National Electron Diffraction Facility. Email [email protected] for more information or if you need an account.

Our latest work in IUCrJ which looks at intermolecular interactions in crystalline sponges! doi.org/10.1107/S20522…

A great piece of work by Rob Carroll which will feed into NCS Crystal Sponge service.

Soo excited to announce the birth of ‘Els’ - our new dedicated electron diffractometer Rigaku Oxford Diffraction @UoSChemistry NCS. This is one of those career milestone moments…

Very exciting times ahead - look out for the NCS call for applications to use this national facility…coming soon…

Our call for applications for SCXRD, advanced techniques and electron diffraction is currently live. For more information on the services we offer and how to apply visit ncs.ac.uk or email [email protected] with your name and institution to get set up on our portal.

Great news-our @UoSChemistry application to renew our Athena Swan Silver Award was successful. The award recognises the School’s efforts in gender equality. Thanks to Paul Duckmanton, Julie Herniman ❤️, the EDI committee and everyone involved #AthenaSwan #GenderEquality @AdvancedHE

Massive thank-you to our NCS host Jere Tidey who managed to solve three sructures using electron diffraction during our first NEDF shift at Warwick using the shiny new Rigaku Oxford Diffraction Synergy ED. I still can't believe those itty bits on the TEM grid diffracted so nicely!

Thrilling moment University of Southampton this week with our partners JEOL EUROPE as we marked the opening of the National Electron Diffraction Facility! Huge kudos to the whole team who played a part in bringing this vision to life. ncs.ac.uk/nedf/

1/6 To celebrate International Women's Day #IWD2024 we will be highlighting the contributions of prestigious women X-Ray crystallographers. At the UK National Crystallography Centre at Southampton NCS each piece of equipment is named after one of these women.

2/6 On International Women's Day #IWD2024 we celebrate the work of Rosalind Franklin NCS en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosalind_…

3/6 On International Women’s Day #IWD2024 we celebrate the work of Dame Kathleen Longsdale NCS en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kathleen_…

4/6 On International Women’s Day #IWD2024 we celebrate the work of Dorothy Hodgkin NCS en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorothy_H…
