</span></b></b><br>
November 2012 marks the centenary of the founding of X-ray crystallography by Lawrence Bragg, a field in which he and his father, William, made�pre-eminent contributions that were recognised by the award of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1915. William was the
 Elder Professor of Physics at the University of Adelaide from 1886 to 1909 and Lawrence was born and educated in Adelaide.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>To celebrate this important anniversary, the legacy of the Braggs� discoveries in X-ray crystallography and the insights that they have provided into the structure of matter, a combined scientific meeting of the Asian Crystallography Association and the
 Society of Crystallographers in Australia and New Zealand is to be held in Adelaide from the 2nd to 5th of December 2012. The Conference will be followed by the Bragg Symposium at the University of Adelaide on the 6th of December 2012 that will explore some
 of the historical context�and�personal links�to the Braggs&#39; work as well as�present some of�the broader scientific and social impacts of the Braggs&#39; work. The Conference and Symposium will have a strong line-up of national and international speakers.<u></u><u></u></p>
