International Union of International Union of CrystallographyCrystallography
AimsAims of the IUCr of the IUCr
Promote international cooperation in crystallography Contribute to the advancement of crystallography in
all its aspects, including related topics concerning the non-crystalline states
Facilitate international standardization of methods, of units, of nomenclature and of symbols used in crystallography
Form a focus for the relationship of crystallography to other sciences
