HERCULES is a European course for PhD students and young researchers using Neutrons and Synchrotron Radiation for applications in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Hard & Soft Condensed Matter.

The 5-weeks school includes lectures (60%), hands-on practicals and tutorials at partner institutes (ALBA synchrotron in Barcelona, Spain; KIT light source in Karlsruhe, Germany; Elettra and FERMI in Trieste, Italy; PSI in Villigen, Switzerland).

The school  includes a common part and two parallel sessions:
- Biomolecular, soft condensed matter structure & dynamics
- Physics and chemistry of condensed matter  

Why join Hercules ?

• to learn new techniques using neutron and synchrotron radiation
• to expand your theoretical and practical knowledge, not only for your present research but for your scientific career
• to experiment these techniques on world-class instruments & beamlines
• to build a network of relations with fellow young researchers and experienced teachers from all around the World

Bursaries/reduced costs: a limited number of bursaries will be available either to reduce registration fees or cover travel costs.

The Hercules organisation team is closely monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic evolution. The school will take place under its conventional on site form if all safety conditions are met. Otherwise HERCULES 2021 will take place as an online course, (with reduced registration fees), including remote video lectures as well as interactive tutorials for simulation and data analysis.

2021 session:  22nd February - 26th March 2021
Deadline for application:   17 October 2020
