American Association to Advance Powder Diffraction Informational Meeting [Open Meeting]
The AAAPD is a free-to-join professional organization (https://powderdiffraction.org/) representing scientists and engineers from academia, government, and industry who use powder diffraction. Our goal is to serve as a voice for powder diffraction and ensure a bright future for this field by advocating for user needs. We provide a network to connect powder diffraction practitioners, as well as curated information on topics such as conferences, databases, educational resources, instrumentation, facilities, and software used by the scientific community.
