Seize the opportunity to develop cross-disciplinary research – LINXS announces new themes

Are you interested in contributing to cutting-edge scientific progress using X-rays, neutrons, and complementary technologies? LINXS, Institute of Advanced Neutron and X-ray Science, announces new themes.

LINXS is seeking original, innovative and cutting-edge themed proposals that will advance science using X-rays, neutrons and complementary technologies. If you have a proposal that combines interdisciplinary and multi-technology elements and brings together experimentalists, theorists, and modelers this could be the thing for you.

“The LINXS national and international theme call is a great opportunity for researchers from the Faculty of Medicine to develop interdisciplinary and collaborative research exploiting the use of X-ray and neutrons facilities – over (and between) the general areas of life sciences, soft matter, and hard matter,” says Trevor Forsyth, director at LINXS.

LINXS Themes do not resource the research itself, but fund meetings and workshops – interactions that would otherwise not occur. LINXS also places strong emphasis on activities for young researchers, the PIs of the future. 

LINXS Themes are funded for three years with underlying goals of sustainability beyond the duration of the theme; they have often resulted in novel funding applications and the generation of new initiatives.

About LINXS and the call

The mission of the LINXS Institute of Advanced Neutron and X-ray Science is to maximise the scientific utilisation of large research facilities such as MAX IV and ESS as well as other similar international infrastructures that Sweden uses. The goal is to strengthen neutron- and X-ray-based research and education.
