Want to increase the quality of your research in 2023? Our popular ‘Ask an Expert!’ webinar series can help you achieve your goal. Now in its third year, the ‘Ask an Expert!’ series connects students, researchers, and professors with expert speakers who will answer questions and share practical advice that can help take your research to the next level.
Over the course of the year, we will hear from both Malvern Panalytical experts and external speakers – including shortlisted candidates from the Malvern Panalytical Scientific Award 2022!
The free sessions are perfect for anyone who wants to sharpen their analytical methods, deepen their knowledge, or find out how to improve their data. We provide extensive materials analysis information and answer incoming questions on each topic. Each webinar builds on the foundation of presentations from the last two years, so if you haven’t already seen them (or need a refresher), please watch the previously last year’s recorded events.
Each webinar covers an aspect of sample preparation, data collection, or analysis and reporting. These events are all free to join, and you can attend as many as you like to support your research or build your knowledge. The table below lists the topics we will discuss, with links to register for upcoming sessions.
Why not sign up for Malvern Panalytical event notifications? You will be notified a month in advance of each event to make sure you don't miss out!
See you there!
Do you have a question for our experts?
If you have a question for our experts which you would like discussed in our upcoming events, please submit your question at any time by emailing askanexpert@malvernpanalytical.com or using the #MPexpert hashtag on Twitter.
Questions and data can be submitted up to 10 days before the webinar and will be answered during the event - just let us know which event they are for and start asking!
