The joint Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL) and the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) users' conference will be held VIRTUALLY!  To facilitate participation by our international user community, we are planning for shorter sessions with time for breakout discussions, primarily scheduled in the mornings and early afternoon (Pacific). So, save the dates September 28-October 9, 2020. Check back later for more program and registration details.
