Virtual SSRL-EMSL Workshop: Spectroscopy and Modeling for Molecular Insight into Environmental Processes – January 26, 2021
Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL), in coordination with the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory (EMSL) will organize a virtual half-day workshop titled “Spectroscopy and Modeling for Molecular Insight into Environmental Processes” on January 26, 2021. The focus is to encourage and provide help in getting started with the use of theory and modeling (such as DFT and MD) in the interpretation of EXAFS/XAS data. This workshop is part of a DOE Biological and Environmental Research (BER) outreach initiative within SSRL to expand biological and environmental user research and support DOE BER-funded individual researchers and scientists within BER user facilities on SSRL’s X-ray imaging and spectroscopy beamlines. All interested users/research groups are encouraged to participate.
- Time: 8:00 am – 2:00 pm Pacific Time
