LINXS Science Day

Recorded Video

Welcome to the LINXS Science Day which will focus on early-stage researchers’ science and initiatives.  We will also discuss the LINXS developments and future plans in expanding the LINXS community, as well as the developments at MAX IV and ESS and other facilities such as ISIS.

We hope to see many of you at LINXS and enjoy a mingle, but you can also participate online if you prefer.

When: May 4, 08:30 - 17:00
Where: at LINXS (5th floor, Sheelevägen 19, Lund), with digital possibility (Zoom)
Registration deadline: April 27. After that time we will only accept registrations for digital participation.
