SACLA Research Support Program for Graduate Students


Objective
Since its opening in 2011, SACLA (SPring-8 Angstrom Compact free electron LAser) has driven ground breaking developments in biology, chemistry, materials science, high-energy density science, and quantum X-ray optics, as well as exciting innovations for industrial applications. Advanced characteristics of SACLA provide excellent opportunities for motivated students to tackle important scientific/technological problems and to exploit their research capabilities. We hope that engaging with the newest generation of scientists will spur the development of new possibilities for SACLA.
The SACLA Research Support Program for Graduate Students will accept graduate students as trainees at SACLA and offer them valuable hands-on experience in advanced research. In addition, we will allow them to participate in workshops and internal meetings and will provide opportunities to converse with SACLA staff scientists and leading researchers from around the world, which are useful for broadening their scientific exposure.
