Tom The Ultrafast X-ray Summer Seminar (UXSS) 2018 will take place at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, in Menlo Park, California, 24-28 June 2018. UXSS is an annual event jointly organized by the Stanford PULSE Institute at SLAC and the Center for Free-Electron Laser Science (CFEL) at DESY. UXSS is intended to introduce students and postdocs to the latest science that is enabled by novel X-ray Free Electron Lasers. The program will be highly interdisciplinary, with topics ranging from materials physics to structural biology. The list of confirmed speakers can be found below. There will also be a coursework exercise involving a mock proposal for the LCLS, with the help of experienced mentors. The UXSS 2018 website is now online with more information: https://app.certain.com/profile/web/1008141 Registration is open!
