   APPLICATION OF SYNCHROTRON RADIATION
              IN CRYSTALLOGRAPHY

     Satellite Meeting of XVI Congress
         and General Assembly

   INTERNATIONAL UNION OF CRYSTALLOGRAPHY

        August 31 -September 3, 1993

Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (BSRL), Beijing,
                    P.R.China


               FIRST CIRCULAR

The meeting will be held on Aug.31-Sept.3, 1993, at BSRL
right after the XVI Congress and General Assembly of the
Internation Union of Crystallography( Aug.21-29, 1993).
The scientific programme will focus on the novel
application of synchrotron radiation in crystallography,
diffraction and EXAFS. Social events and a tour to the
scenic spots around Beijing will be included.

                PROGRAMME

The scientific programme will include plenary and poster
sessions. In addition, some discussions will be organized in
certain fields. The programme will  cover the following
main areas:

  *The novel synchrotron radiation techniques in
   crystallography, diffraction and EXAFS.
  *New synchrotron radiation instrumentation for
   crystallography, diffraction and EXAFS.
  *Progress of synchrotron radiation crystallographical
   research in materials science, biological science
   (including protein engineering),thin films, surfaces,
   and other fields.
  *Synchrotron radiation in China.
  *A conducted tour of the synchrotrn radiation source and
   beam lines at BSRL, IHEP, Beijing.

The working language will be English.

           SUPPORT FOR YOUNG SCIENTISTS

Some support will be arranged towards the registration
and accomodation costs of young scientists and students
participating in the Meeting. Details of this arrangement
will be provided in the Second Circular.
