For early-career crystallographers, the @IUCr awards the Struchkov Prize (iucr.org/iucr/struchkov-priz…) every three years for outstanding achievements in small-molecule X-ray diffraction methods in chemistry, crystal chemistry, or materials science. Applications are now open.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by during #mmc2025!
We had a fantastic time connecting with researchers, learning about exciting work in microscopy and sharing what the IUCr biology journals have to offer.

Born on this day, W. H. Bragg, together with his son Lawrence, laid the foundation for crystallography as we know it.
To mark his birthday, revisit this thoughtful retrospective from Fifty Years of X-ray Diffraction, reflecting on Bragg’s lasting impact.
