| Description | On the occasion of declaring by the United Nations the Year 2014 as the International Year of Crystallography, on 14th April 2014 we organise a Seminar entitled: "Polish Crystallography: Past, Present and Future" at a new building of the Warsaw University Biological and Chemical Research Centre.
The Seminar will consists of two parts: one focused on the past history of crystallography in Poland and the other one on the present challenging topics which are of interests for the Polish community. Below is the programme of this Seminar which will be also attended by Prof. Gautam Desiraju, President of IUCr: Polish Crystallography: Past, Present and FutureProgramme (Click here to download a printable PDF version) 10:00-10:20 Welcome Krzysztof Woźniak - Chair of the Organizing Committee 10:20–10:35 Gautam Desiraju (President of IUCr) Message from the President of IUCr 10:35–11:00 Barbara Oleksyn (Jagiellonian University) Crystallography and Crystallographers in Poland: a Historical Outline 11:00–11:15 Marek Krygowski (ChD UW) Crystallography at the Department of Chemistry of the University of Warsaw 11:15–11:35 Anna Pajączkowska (ITME) Professor Jan Czochralski – Scientist of the World 11:35–12:00 Damian Kucharczyk (Agilent Tech.)
