DEADLINE FOR APPLICATION: 6 October 2024
HERCULES is a European course for PhD students and young researchers using Neutrons and Synchrotron Radiation for applications in BiologyChemistryPhysicsHard & Soft Condensed Matter.

The 5-week school includes lectures (60%), hands-on practicals, labs & tutorials (30%), visits, a poster session, group work sessions, ...
Participants will spend one week in a partner institution in Europe among:
  • ALBA in Barcelona, Spain
  • PETRA III and EU-XFEL in Hambourg, Germany
  • KIT light source in Karlsruhe, Germany
  • SOLEIL in Saint-Aubin, France
This comes in addition to practicals, labs, and tutorials which will take place in Grenoble at ILLESRF and Grenoble Laboratories (CNRSIBS).

The school  includes a common part and two parallel sessions:
Physics and chemistry of condensed matter (session A)
Biomolecular and soft condensed matter (session B)
 
The school will be held in an hybrid format. Thus, a part-time online participation is also possible, consisting only in following online the lectures held in Grenoble during weeks 1, 2, 3 and 5.
