New Application Process

Last March, we implemented a formal application
process for requesting support from the ICDD for
scientific meetings, workshops, and symposia.

A Task Group, chaired by Jim Kaduk, has been
created to review the requests for support, and
recommend funding for activities that improve
materials analysis by XRD and XRF within the
worldwide scientific community
