Accessing beamtime at large scale facilities for new and non-expert users through NEPHEWS
The video titled "Accessing Beamtime at Large Scale Facilities for New and Non-Expert Users through NEPHEWS" features Antje Vollmer from Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) and Philip King from ISIS Neutron & Muon Source (ISIS). They discuss strategies and support mechanisms provided by the NEPHEWS project to assist new and non-expert users in accessing beamtime at large-scale research infrastructures. The presentation emphasizes user-twinning and Early Stage Researcher (ESR) support programs designed to facilitate the application process and enhance user experience at these facilities.
NEPHEWS Project
(NEutrons and PHotons Elevating Worldwide Science)
Improved research infrastructure and scientific endeavours have the potential to propel innovation forward and significantly enhance the quality of life for populations. With this in mind, the EU-funded NEPHEWS project aims to broaden access to advanced neutron, synchrotron, and free-electron complementary research infrastructures across an expanding range of countries. The project will collaborate with its user base to develop a user-driven access program focused on enhancing the accessibility and usability of the research infrastructures (RI) for diverse communities. Additionally, it will offer a wide range of experiments, provide expert training, and conduct virtual and in-person workshops and collaborations. Finally, the project will facilitate political dialogue and advocate for research funding.
