Young mineral scientists rock!
Date:5/29/2008

a prerequisite to comprehend whats happening on a larger scale like mountain building; her analogue study with in situ experiments in the scanning electron microscope on the annealing of deformed rocksalt led to winning the award.

A concentrated meeting like the 2nd EuroMinScI conference is especially important for the networking of young and also more senior scientists, opening up opportunities for their future careers and collaborations. 11 internationally recognized external experts were attending the conference as invited speakers. Professor Ross Angel from Virginia Tech, who gave one of the keynote lectures, noted the breadth of the research groups reaching from atomic modelers to structural geologists and stated: I think EuroMinScI is a unique picture of this kind of collaboration between these traditionally very different fields of expertise. Dr. David Stonner, Head of the Europe Office of the National Science Foundation (NSF), took part in the conference as an observer and enjoyed the multidisciplinarity of the participants. I was impressed by the quality of the presentations and the quality of the interaction between the participants commented Stonner. He sees multiple potential linkages between American groups in the mineral sciences and EuroMinScI.

The European added value of the EUROCORES programme could be clearly felt at the conference and the benefits are multi-facetted. The European mineral physics community has through EuroMinScI for the first time a common venue. We have found a common marketplace to exchange ideas and EuroMinScI is a highly successful enterprise said Winkler and hopes to continue the collaborative work in a similar manner in the future. David Stonner concludes: My understanding of the Scheme and the changing research landscape in Europe is that EUROCORES will play an increasingly large role in collaborative activities in Europe, and I think quite possibly throughout the world, as scientists look for opportun
