Dynamic Light Scattering Focus Meeting 2012

The Dynamic Light Scattering Focus Meeting was held on October 24, 2012 and is dedicated to the exchange of experiences between users of Wyatt DLS systems. Both positive experiences as well as difficulties encountered and how these issues were solved were discussed. The format of the meeting consisted of plenary talks, each followed by a round-table discussion, structured along different topics. The R&D and support staff from Wyatt were on hand to join in on the discussions and to hear how we can improve the instrumentation. Also, the latest development in both hardware and software improvement were discussed.
