For a former longtime Californian like me, acclimating to the winter in Ithaca with so much snow and very low temperatures is certainly quite a change. Luckily the warm atmosphere at CHESS and the exciting science we are pursuing, make up for the cold and snowy winter weather!
Users with current proposals, (i.e. proposals submitted within the last two years) are encouraged to submit beam time requests (BTRs) by March 2nd to apply for beam time during the April to June run.
The women in science at CHESS took a brief break from their activities recently to appreciate the UN International Day of Women and Girls in Science and to document how far we have come, but also how much more there is to do until the diversity of the scientific community reflects the diversity of society.
Please save the date for the CHESS Users’ Meeting on June 9/10, 2020. This year our theme is “Focus on the future”. We will try an updated format with a shorter plenary session and several 1-2 day workshops exploring future scientific directions at CHESS. More information will be provided soon!
