In this 3rd CAMatNet meeting we bring together scientists in Cambridge who are imaging the structure and properties of materials across different lengthscales using many forms of radiation and microscopies. The central themes of the meeting will be to see how complementary and novel techniques can reveal previously hidden structure and functionality, how machine learning and compressed sensing methods are transforming the way imaging data is analysed and how new instrumentation is enabling new materials and new devices to be studied for the first time. Speakers will come from across a wide spectrum of Cambridge departments with a mix of established and early-career researchers. The meeting will be an opportunity to make new contacts, re-kindle existing ones and to network with others in the field.

What are my transport/parking options for getting to and from the event?

The Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology is on the West Cambridge Site. There is no parking available on site. The Madingley Park and Ride car park is about a 10 minute walk away and the Universal bus that runs between Addenbrookes - the Town Centre - Madingley Park and Ride stops outside the department.
