Congratulations to EMAT student Sepideh Rahimi for winning a poster prize at #ECSSC2023 on “Polysulfide in-situ characterization with 3D electron diffraction for
Lithium-Sulfur batteries”
Our #BraggYourPattern website has just gone live. Can you See A Pattern? Make A Pattern? Great Prizes and two age brackets (10 and under; 11 and over). Competition opens National Science Week (13-21 Aug), so start looking and making now!

Today is 112 years since the birth of Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin. Born in Egypt in 1910, she was a pioneer of X-ray diffraction studies of crystals of large molecules and proteins - work which led to her winning the 1964 Nobel prize in Chemistry.
Crystallographers (and all lovers of patterns) - we need YOU! We are looking to get more beautiful patterns (observed in your surrounding or something you've made) onto social medial - please share what you've seen/done with the tag #BraggYourPattern
Let's talk structural databases! Grad students, postdoc fellows, faculty and researchers in any of the crystallographic, diffraction, and imaging sciences affiliated with the IUCr are encouraged to register (it's free)! https://t.co/l4BfVMTT5Z
The Registration für the #ECS7, the 2022 European Crystallographic School in Lisbon is open! For more information visit: https://t.co/j2GZL68UGi

#OnThisDay 1903: Dame Kathleen Lonsdale, a pioneering crystallographer, was born. She was one of the first two women to be elected a Fellow of @royalsociety.
For all crystallography educators out there who don't have access to a single crystal diffractometer for their students to explore, here you go! @IUCrJ@ACAxtal@ECA_social

Iron-pyrite FeS₂ represents the prototype compound of the crystallographic pyrite structure. The structure is simple cubic and was among the first crystal structures solved by X-ray diffraction. This beautiful 1.8 kg specimen comes from Spain [source: https://t.co/JxnXj69NK5]
