Advanced course on beamline data analysis

Course participants and tutors
Published Nov 20, 2022

This advanced course, with its hands-on data analysis concept with tutorials held by leading specialists in various data analysis software, attracted 50 applications. On 16-18 Nov, with 30 participants from Sweden and elsewhere in Europe appreciated the opportunity to network and solve their data analysis problems.

At Uppsala's Ångström Laboratories, between 16-18 November, this course brought together synchrotron data analysis software experts with learners and learners' own data. Learners were guided by the software experts to optimise analysis of their datasets in small workshops of 5-8 people. A series of workshops was held over 3 days, with experts in all the major synchrotron analysis software data participating. At the beginning of each day, there were plenary sessions where people can hear the latest news about updates and upgrades.

Thank you to Uppsala University's Martin Sahlberg and Will Brant for organising the course.

And, an extra special thanks to the experts for being there for the next generation of synchrotron and spallation source users.

After the course, learners felt much more confident in tackling the large volume of data generated by research infrastructures.
