During the days of the conference, two Bruker delegates, <strong>Eric Hovestreydt</strong> and <strong>Lo茂c Le Dr茅au</strong>, will assist for installation, demonstration and data collections and analyses. Support will be given by IUCr delegates, <strong>Claude Lecomte</strong> and <strong>Michele Zema</strong> and local organizer <strong>Patrick Kenfack</strong>.<br /> The Bruker system is intended to remain at the University of Dschang for a period of few months after the PCCr1 conference, allowing local researchers to conduct in-house XRD single-crystal measurements. During these period, dedicated courses will be organized locally to train young students. </p> <div style="text-align: right;"> <a href="https://www.iycr2014.org/home/news/openlab-cameroon-@pccr1"></a><br /> <small><em>Posted 28 Sep 2016 </em></small> </div> <hr /> <h1 style="clear:left;font-size:200%;">2016 IUCr Crystal-growing competition now open</h1> <p><p><a href="https://www.iycr2014.org/participate/crystal-growing-competition-2016"><img src="https://www.iycr2014.org/__data/assets/image/0017/120671/Joanna_Full_2016.png" align="left" width="120" height="120" alt="Joanna_Full_2016" hspace="8" vspace="0" style="border: 0px solid rgb(0, 0, 0);" /></a>The <a href="https://www.iycr2014.org/participate/crystal-growing-competition-2016">2016 edition of the IUCr Crystal growing competition</a> is now open!
