<div style="margin:0;"><font style="font-family: Cambria, serif, serif, "EmojiFont";" size="2" face="Cambria,serif"><span style="font-size:10pt;">Lectures sessions will cover a range of neutron elastic and inelastic scattering as well as diffraction techniques
with scientific applications in a diverse range of fields including biology, chemistry and physics. During the five days intensive study course, you will also have the opportunity to learn from leading experts and conduct practical work on some of the world’s
top neutron instruments. </span></font></div>
<div style="margin:0;"><font style="font-family: Cambria, serif, serif, "EmojiFont";" size="2" face="Cambria,serif"><span style="font-size:10pt;">The school is designed for the graduate students, PhD students, post-doctoral and early-career researchers who
