During this year's Tulip VII Prof. Ivan Powis (University of Nottigham, UK) introduced PhotoElectron CircularDichroism (PECD) as part of his lectures on the role of the continuum electron in modern spectroscopy. Below you can see some of the enthusiastic discussions on PECD between prof. Powis and the Tulip participants (Master students, graduate students and postdocs from all over Europe). Prof. Ivan Powis lecturing and discussing PhotoElectron Circular Dichroism with the enthusiastic participants at Tulip VII 2018.

See the blog item by PCCP here. The Tulip Summer School is one of the educational activities organized by the Holland Research School of Molecular Chemistry (HRSMC) and has been held on a tri-annual basis since 2001. The HRSMC is a collaboration between top research groups of four Dutch Universities: the University of Amsterdam (UvA), the VU University Amsterdam (VU), Leiden University (UL) and the Radboud University (RU). It's main mission is to provide an extensive training programme for PhD students in chemistry. The HRSMC has been approved by the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW). The HRSMC research school creates the conditions for a successful collaboration between the participating research groups and offers an extensive training programme for the PhD students in inorganic, organic, physical and theoretical chemistry, crystallography and mass spectrometry.
