By the help of a joint FWO-MTA mobility grant Dr. Vincent Ching and Kevin Nys visited our laboratory between 12-16 June 2018. The title of the project is “Structural analysis of copper-drug complexes relevant for chelation therapy by using pulsed-EPR and SXRD methods”. By the help of this FWO-MTA mobility grant our goal is to use pulsed-EPR methods to determine the couplings of far ligand protons for the CuL2 complexes of some hydroxypyridinecarboxylic acids (HPC) in order to detect the Read More …

Professor Alajos Kálmán passed away on 26th December 2017.
He was one of the most prominent scientists in crystallography of our time. He was a most productive, widely respected, much-admired and inspiring scientific leader. We recall him as an enthusiastic and entertaining head, colleague, teacher and friend who loved crystallography and made a huge contribution to it. We treasure our memories with him. He will be missed by the crystallographic community. Biography
Tamás Holczbauer has been awarded the J. Bolyai Research Scholarship of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences
The aim of the J. Bolyai Research Scholarship is to cater for young researchers the possibility of realizing their research programs.
Petra Bombicz is appointed to be the Editor-in-Chief of Crystallography Reviews from 1st January 2018.
Crystallography Reviews publishes English language reviews on topics in crystallography and crystal growth, covering all theoretical and applied aspects of biological, chemical, industrial, mineralogical and physical crystallography. The intended readership is the crystallographic community at large, as well as scientists working in related fields of interest.
The group received an OTKA grant
