The canSAS-2023 Workshop, canSAS-XIII, will be hosted by the Institut Laue Langevin (ILL) and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France from 16-18 October 2023.

Purpose

This Workshop marks the 25th Anniversary of the canSAS network (collective action for nomadic Small Angle Scatterers).

The meeting will address topics such as artificial intelligence and machine learning in small-angle scattering data analysis and acquisition optimization, experimental aspects including emerging sample environments, small-angle scattering based imaging and issues related to ultra small-angle scattering. There will be a mixture of plenary sessions and breakout groups with extensive discussion and posters. And the canSAS working groups will report on their activities.
