This workshop is designed as a series of relatively informal lectures in which users in the small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) community will share their experience in their particular application of SAXS techniques. Fields which will be reviewed include materials science applications: where selective doping produces novel rheological characteristics within elastomeric polypropylene; materials synthesis: where living polymerization techniques permit construction of dendrimer structures for drug delivery systems; and biological applications: in the determination of low-resolution structures of large protein complexes and the association and folding states of proteins. This workshop will review prominent experimental work which has been conducted on the small angle X-ray scattering beamlines by users of the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory over the past year, and thereby highlight novel avenues of research for the future.
