It's great to see so many young students learning how to use the CSD, ConQuest, Mercury and Mogul, in their scientific research at today's @x_techlab training in Seme City Benin.
Thanks to Samuel Tetteh and Marielle Agbahoungbata, for organising and supporting the students.
Hello world! What's going on... We're introducing the new @IUCr logo!
We're still the IUCr, dedicated to advancing structural science globally 🌐 The new design reflects our interconnectivity and global outlook.
