Last December, I had the good fortune to travel to Hanoi for the annual meeting of the Asian Crystallographic Association (AsCA). I met many student researchers and enjoyed hearing about their work. The CCDC sponsored prizes for the best student posters. After the meeting, I caught up again with two of the winners and asked them to send along a summary of their experiences of the meeting. It’s always a pleasure to hear from students who are so enthusiastic about crystallography, structural chemistry, and presenting their work at scientific meetings. I share their impressions of AsCA2016 with you here...
