This workshop aims to introduce the capabilities of neutron scattering techniques and sketch the scientific opportunities to scientists with little or no neutron scattering experience. Particularly, those working in the fields of Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science, Engineering, and Biology will find the workshop valuable. Faculty members, research scientists, and postdocs are welcome to apply. Senior PhD students may also be considered subject to availability of funds for the workshop. Once accepted, travel and lodging expenses may be reimbursed if the participant is coming from an EPSCoR state. Deadline for Non-US and US citizens without ORNL badge is May 16<sup>th </sup>and May 31<sup>st</sup> respectfully. </span></span><span style='color:#17375E;mso-style-textfill-fill-color:#17375E;mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha:100.0%'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph'><span style='font-family:"Book Antiqua","serif";color:#17375E;mso-style-textfill-fill-color:#17375E;mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha:100.0%'><span style='color:windowtext'>We would greatly appreciate if you can assist in distributing the information amongst potentially interested scientists at your institution.
