The Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory (LNLS) of the Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM) will host the Synchrotron Nano-Bio Interfaces (SYNBIOS). This one-day workshop will be held on November 10, 2023, as one of the satellite events of the 33rd Annual LNLS Users Meeting.
This workshop aims to emphasize the remarkable capabilities of Sirius in addressing challenges related to nano-bio interfaces. Our focus will be on showcasing the beamlines of Sirius phase 1, specifically highlighting X-ray techniques such as coherent diffraction imaging, nano- and micro-infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy. These techniques hold the potential to unveil essential information about biological materials within the nanospace. Through this comprehensive overview, our objective is to inspire and encourage the community to explore the vast possibilities that Sirius offers.
SYNBIOS will bring together esteemed scientists from Brazil and around the world to share their valuable insights and engage in discussions on cutting-edge research utilizing synchrotron-based techniques. These techniques enable the study of nanometric, biologic, and materials situated at the interface using state-of-the-art fourth-generation synchrotron light sources like Sirius. As one of the world’s most advanced facilities of its kind, Sirius opens up new perspectives for research across various fields.
Therefore, SYNBIOS aims to motivate the community by showcasing the diverse array of current and upcoming possibilities at Sirius.
