<p class="style75">Join us for the sixth <strong>American Conference on Neutron Scattering</strong> (ACNS 2012).
Hosted at historic Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., the conference
will provide essential information on the breadth and depth of current neutron-related
research worldwide. This year’s conference will feature a combination of
invited and contributed talks, posters sessions, tutorials and an industrial exhibit.
Plus, the last day of the conference features a tour of NIST Center for Neutron
Research. Mark your calendar today and plan to attend ACNS 2012!</p>
<p class="style75">For the most up-to-date information on ACNS 2012,

<p class="style75">Georgetown, situated on the bluffs of Washington, D.C., is rich in history and
culture, making it an ideal conference and vacation destination. Known for its
high-end shopping and dining and quaint row houses overlooking Waterfront
Harbor, Georgetown is truly unlike any other city in the U.S. Take a walk back
in time on Georgetown’s famous 18th century cobblestone streets. Visit the
palatial gardens at Dumbarton Oaks, a mansion built in 1800 for Senator John
Calhoun. Add in all the sites and attractions found in nearby Washington, D.C.,
and you'll never have a dull moment!</p>
