The VI-th
National
Crystallographic Symposium
(NCS2016), held in the Grand Hall of the
Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, on 05–07
October 2016 is the successive initiative
of a project started in the beginning of 2009 by a group of Bulgarian
crystallographers – enthusiasts and it is nowadays conducted
under the auspices of the Bulgarian
Crystallographic Society (BCS). During the
years one of the main goals of the
Symposium has been the promotion of the
various crystallographic techniques, methods,
programs, software to a larger audience from
different scientific fields: theoretical crystallography,
crystal growth, mineralogy, materials science,
solid state physics, structural biology,
chemical crystallography and other areas, as well. This was a memorable
opportunity to review current developments in
crystallography, addressing materials science
challenges imposed by new materials. The progress
in this
direction is determined mostly by the level of experimental techniques – new
possibilities emerging from new, intense, tunable and precisely focused
X-ray beams, as well as from high resolution,
sensitive, energy dispersive detectors – that were presented by our kind
sponsors: TA instruments, Jeol, Bruker,
Panalytical, Zeiss, ELTA’90, Aquachim,
Labexpert, InfoLab. Following the path,
established during the previous Symposia, the organizers in conjunction
with the BCS have dedicated a special honorary
sign to Prof. Kostadin Petrov from the Institute
of General and Inorganic Chemistry of Bulgarian
Academy of Sciences (see photo). He was the first
amongst the enthusiasts to start not only
thinking but really to act for the
establishment of an independent Crystallographic Society in Bulgaria. The
National Crystallographic Committee, which was
chaired by Professor Kostadin Petrov laid down
the foundations for the appearance of the
Bulgarian Crystallographic Society in
2009. The lecturers of the NCS2016 were
leading researchers in their respective
fields: Svetlana Mintova, ENSICAEN, France, Professor Katharina
Fromm, University of Fribourg, Department of
Chemistry, Professor Krzysztof Wozniak,
University of Warsaw, Poland, Professor Atul Khanna, Department of Physics,
Guru Nanak Dev University, India,
Professor Srebri Petrov, University of Toronto, Canada, Professor Boriana
Mihailova, University of Hamburg, Germany,
Evdokiya Salamanova, Karolinska Institute,
Department of Biosciences and Nutrition, Sweden,
Professor Bogdan Ranguelov, IC–BAS, Professor
Pavleta Shestakova, IOCCP – BAS, Professor
Radostina Stoyanova IGIC – BAS, Professor
Yuri Kalvachev, IMC-BAS, Ivanina Sergeeva,
IG-BAS, Professor Alexander Karamanov, IPCBAS,
Liliya Vladislavova, Otto-Schott-Institut für
Materialforschung, Friedrich-Schiller-Universität
Jena, Germany, Professor Tzonko Kolev, IMBBAS,
Professor Galina Gencheva, Sofia University.
Their participation made the Symposium attractive
and useful for a wide range of participants and
showed the audience the current directions and
trends in the application and development of modern science. The audience
featured more than 130 scientists (110
registered) from seven Bulgarian
universities, 16 institutes of the Bulgarian Academy
of Sciences and scientists from universities and
institutes from Poland, Switzerland, Germany,
France, Sweden, Italy, Slovakia, Spain, Estonia,
Turkey, the Republic of Macedonia, Czech
republic, Canada, USA and India. A total of 22 oral and
65 poster presentations involved more than 250
authors to present their investigations during the three
days of the Symposium.
It is worth noting that over 50% of the
participants were students, PhD students and young scientists who actively
participated in the poster sessions (with very few exceptions all posters
were presented by young scientists). The
practice of the organizers of the National
Crystallographic Symposia is to encourage
and support the scientific progress of
young researchers and for the second time
the organizers were helped by the Ministry of
Science and Education and the Bulgarian National
Science Fund through a grant (ДПМНФ 01/13 –
27.09.2016 г.) especially targeting the young
scientists. We would like to thank the members of the
international jury who had the difficult task to
select the best young scientist poster
presentation namely Maria Kalapsazova for presenting “Diffraction
methods for analysis of layered NaxNi0.5Mn0.5O2
as cathode materials”.
The Symposium attracted the attention of several
different Bulgarian Official Institutions: the
Deputy-chairman of the Bulgarian Parliament Ivan
Ivanov, members of the Parliament’s Commissions:
for “Education and science”, “Children, Youths
and Sports”, “Environment and Water”,
Parliament’s Deputy Chairpersons Borislav
Velikov and Vili Lilkov, The Minister of
Education and Science Meglena Kuneva, the Rector of the University of
Chemical Technology and Metallurgy, Professor
Mitko Georgiev and the President of Bulgarian
Academy of Sciences, represented by the
VicePresident Corresponding member Professor Nikolay
Miloshev. We
would like to announce that in 2017 two
events will be organized under the auspices of the
Bulgarian Crystallographic Society:
A workshop on powder diffraction basics
(scheduled for June 2017) International
Autumn School on Fundamental and Electron
Crystallography, 8–13 October 2017, Sofia,
Bulgaria It is our sincere hope that we
are going to see you at the next Bulgarian
crystallographic symposium in 2018.
