| Event Name | 15th International Summer School on Crystal Growth |
| Start Date | 4th Aug 2013 |
| End Date | 10th Aug 2013 |
| Duration | 7 days |
| Description | The 15th International Summer School on Crystal Growth will be held August 4 -10, 2013 at the Gdansk University of Technology in Gdansk, Poland. Following tradition, the School will be organized during the week prior to the 17th International Conference on Crystal Growth in Warsaw, Poland. The objective of the School is to provide a comprehensive series of lectures on theoretical and experimental aspects of crystal growth and characterization of semiconducting, oxide, metallic, organic, and biological crystals. Lectures by leading researchers will encompass crystal growth processes, nanocrystallization, in-situ and exsitu characterization, properties, and applications. The level of the school is intended for post-graduate and post-doctoral students as well as for researchers from industry and academia who are interested in fundamental knowledge of crystal growth and epitaxy. Researchers new to crystal growth as well as experts are encouraged to attend. |

| 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. |
