12 to 16 May 2025 at Rouen University
This course, covering theoretical and experimental investigation techniques of the organic solid state, is meant for PhD students, post-doctoral students, and other young researchers interested in broadening their horizon. Both theoreticians and experimentalists are welcome to participate to improve their understanding of the challenges in the field.
If accepted in the school, reimbursement of travel and lodging will be provided upon request by the COST Action BEST-CSP: up to €400 for travel and €160 per day for daily expenses.
Subjects:
- Solid state analytical tools
- Thermodynamics and calorimetry
- Crystallography and diffraction
- Crystallisation processes
- Polymorphism
- CCDC tools
- DFT
- Basics of Crystal Structure Prediction
- Calculation of thermodynamic properties
- Industrial challenges
- Practical experience in experimentation and/or calculation
The school will start on Monday at 8.30 and finish Friday after lunch
You can download the local public transport application “MyAstuce”, available for free on Google Play and the App Store.
From the train station “Rouen rive droite” area: take the bus F2 to « La Vatine » or F7 to “La pléiade”. After 6 stops, get off at “Place Colbert” (both F2 or F7 bus). Then, follow the road mentioned in slide 8 in the “Public_transportation_information” presentation.
From the Center of Rouen: take bus T1 to “Mont aux maladies”. Get off at “Campus”. Enter the main entrance of building 44A at the right side of the bus.The BEST-CSP training school will take place at lecture room: A106 (first floor).
