The International Centre for Diffraction Data (ICDD) (Newtown Square, Pennsylvania) is accepting applications for the 2013 Ludo Frevel Crystallography Awards, established to encourage promising graduate students to pursue crystallography-oriented research.
Multiple recipients are selected on a competitive basis, each receiving an award of $2,500. Applications must be received by the ICDD by October 24, 2012.
Applicants should be enrolled in a graduate degree program during the 2012 calendar year with a major interest in crystallography such as crystal structure analysis, crystal morphology, modulated structures, correlation of atomic structure with physical properties, systematic classification of crystal structures, phase identification, and materials characterization. Students with a graduate date prior to July 2013 are not eligible for the 2013 scholarship award. There are no restrictions on country, race, age, or sex. The term of the scholarship is one year.

FT-IR Analysis of pH and Xylitol Driven Conformational Changes of Ovalbumin–Amide VI Band Study
November 21st 2024This study uses Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to analyze how the globular protein ovalbumin's secondary structures transition under varying pH conditions in the presence of the cosolvent xylitol, highlighting the role of noncovalent interactions in these conformational changes.
