Scope

National Seminar on Crystallography is an annual event organized in order to provide a perfect platform for the Indian Crystallographers to meet in one place to discuss the subject crystallography from traditional to emerging areas.  The seminar will focus on new perspectives to identify new challenges and breakthroughs in the field. The macromolecular crystallography and crystal engineering have emerged as the frontier topics in India on par with the world standards. Also the number of Crystallographers is increasing in India each year. This seminar will provide an excellent opportunity to the exchange of knowledge and show case of latest inventions. The main goal is to bring in the next generation researchers in contact with the subject experts from academia, R & D laboratories and industries. In recent years, we see an increase in the participation of industries in the National Seminar on Crystallography. Therefore, the organizers highly encourage the Research Students’ participation in NSC-38, Mysore, during Feb. 11-13, 2009, in a large number to utilize this opportunity to meet the experts drawn from India and abroad. The most leading crystallographers covering all areas of crystallography have been carefully selected by the Organizing Committee to deliver Public, Plenary, Keynote and Invited Talks.
