SALVE Seminar

The SALVE seminar series feature 2-monthly talks given by invited speakers in the field of SALVE microscopy and related topics. These talks primarily address an audience of advanced researchers and young scientists from Ulm University and the SALVE III team. Subjects are related to electron microscopy, electron optics and electron-beam-sensitive materials science. The aim of the seminar series is to foster scientific interest and lively discussion amongst students and scientists in a variety of science issues in this renewed age of high interest in electron-beam-sensitive materials research.

The talks usually take place at 2pm on the first Thursday of the month at EMMS, N27, seminar room 2.033 (first level) at Ulm University. The duration of each talk is approximately 50 minutes, followed by 10 minutes of discussion, which may be continued in an informal way in the EMMS glass cube where coffee/tea and cakes will be served.

We thereby hope to reach a wide and diverse, national and international audience to foster the scientific discussion in SALVE fields.
