Diamond Light Source is delighted to announce the 9th edition of the Synchrotron Radiation School, taking place from Sunday 21st to Friday 26th September 2025.
The SR School aims to provide postgraduate students and post-doctoral researchers, who have little experience of synchrotron radiation (SR), with a broad-based introduction to many of the different types of experiments conducted using SR.
The school is largely aimed at physical scientists, but life scientists are welcome to apply. This event will give the attendees the opportunity to obtain hands-on practical experience of performing an experiment on 17 Diamond Light Source beamlines.
The school will take place in person, between Diamond Light Source and Jesus College (Oxford), where accommodation for the participants will also be provided.
The format of the school will include a “break the ice” introduction session inclusive of a communication/engagement talk, will be followed by two full days of lectures on SR methods, two days of experiments on the Diamond Light Source beamlines plus one final symposium day with a number of leading synchrotron practitioners talking about their research.
