ECM 19, Nancy, France August 25th - 31st 2000 The 19th European Crystallographic Meeting was held in August, in Nancy, France. Those attending from the Chemical Crystallography Laboratory in Oxford were: Professor Keith Prout, Dr David Watkin, Dr Richard Cooper, Clare Keats, Ibrahim Tahir and Simon Borwick. Most of these photos were taken by Ibrahim Tahir. Click on a picture for a larger version. In and around Nancy A bar close to Place Stanislas in the centre of Nancy. L-R: Pam McGregor, Leigh Rees, Simon Parsons, Clare Keats, someone, David Watkin, Ibrahim Tahir, Richard Cooper. 'Oxford Chemical Crystallography Reunion Dinner 2000' - thanks to some fantastic organisation by Alison Edwards, everyone at the meeting who had ever worked at or been near 9 Parks Road met up for this splendid evening. Clockwise from bottom left: Leigh Rees, Keith Wilson, Keith Prout, Alison Edwards, David Watkin (standing), Clare Keats, Tony Linden (looking the wrong way), a waiter, Lachlan Cranswick (hidden by:), Harry Powell, Russell Morris, Lesley Prout, Fedor Valach, Simon Parsons (only elbows visible), Richard Cooper. The official conference dinner - in an abandoned water pumping station near a castle some miles from Nancy. Centre table clockwise from front: Bob Coxall (main moose impersonation), Simon Coles, Andy Parkin (moose impersonation), Pam McGregor, Clare Keats, Richard Cooper (poor moose impersonation), Sean Cafferkey, Simon Borwick The Town of Metz In the town square, in front of Metz cathedral. Pausing (or should that be posing?) on a bridge. Simon, Clare and Ibby in front of some sort of catherdral. Stopping on another bridge to rest after a tiring day of crystallography discussion.
