Thank You!

Around 400 researchers from Germany and Europe gathered for the SNI2022 conference in Berlin to put forward the breadth of scientific and technological areas to Research with Synchrotron Radiation, Neutrons and Ion Beams at Large Facilities contributes to. Presentations covered the entire field from curiosity driven investigations of fundamental principles to application-oriented development of materials and devices. Many of the results rely on the sustainable funding within the ErUM framework of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), a world-wide unique tool to foster collaborations between University research groups and “their” facilities. Highlighting the societal relevance of research at large scale facilities was also the topic of the public lecture.

The local organizers, together with the chair persons of the KFS, KFN and KFSI, thank you all for your contributions and your enthusiasm, making it a very successful and inspiring meeting, and the stimulating discussions we all had in this much missed face-to-face event.
