Pan African Conference on Crystallography (PCCr3)
January 17th - 21st, 2023
BOMAS of Kenya NAIROBI-KENYA
Theme
‘Harnessing Crystallography For Africa’s Research And Technology Transformation’
What is PCCr3?
Crystallography is the cornerstone of Chemistry, Physics, Material Science and Engineering. Africa’s economic growth depends on its harnessing and exploiting its mineral resources.The purpose of the conference is to stimulate economic growth in Africa by building synergy between Funding agencies, Industry and Academia through exploitation crystallography to enhance research and innovation.
This would pedestal Africa to knowledge driven economy based revolution on identification and value addition of natural mineral resources. This conference opens opportunities African Crystallographers to exchange ideas and collaborate in use of crystallography in advancing science and engineering is important in the development of sustainable economic growth in Africa. Similarly, the African Crystallography Association (AFCA) will be launched during PCCr3. The Materials Research Society of Kenya is pleased to welcome participants to Nairobi ‘City in the Sun’ renowned Nairobi National Park is the only one the world to be found within the precincts of a city.
