| Event Name | Past, Present, and Future of Crystallography@Politecnico di Milano: From Small Molecules to Macromolecules and Supramolecular Structures |
| Start Date | 6th Jun 2013 8:45am |
| End Date | 7th Jun 2013 1:00pm |
| Duration | 1 day, 4 hours and 15 minutes |
| Description | In 2013 the Politecnico di Milano celebrates its 150th anniversary (1863-2013). 2013 also marks the 50th anniversary of the award of the Nobel Prize in chemistry to Giulio Natta, for his discoveries at the Politecnico di Milano in the field of the chemistry and technology of high polymers. In this framework, we are pleased to invite you to attend the conference “Past, Present and Future of Crystallography@Politecnico di Milano: From Small Molecules to Macromolecules and Supramolecular Structures” that will be held on 6-7 June, 2013 at Politecnico di Milano. The aim of the event is to celebrate the two above mentioned important milestones for Chemistry and for our university. This conference will bring together leading scientists with interests in crystallography and crystal engineering and will provide an excellent opportunity to disseminate the latest results in the field. |

| Event Name | Platonic Solids and Quasicrystals - Moments in the History of Crystallography |
| Start Date | 30th May 2013 |
| End Date | 4th May 2014 |
| Duration | 340 days |
| Description | This year's exhibition at Carolina Rediviva, Platonic Solids and Quasicrystals, is all about crystallography and shows how this science has been perceived over time. By collaborating with the Museum of Evolution at Uppsala University, we can exhibit books side by side with real crystals, models of crystals and instruments that have been used to measure the angles of these strange formations that seem to have been cut and polished by human hand whereas in fact they have been shaped by uniform atomic structures. Welcome on a beautiful journey through this collection of historical scientific books and artifacts. |
