NCNR Users Committee

The NCNR Users Committee provides input to management regarding user concerns, provides a forum for keeping the community informed about issues impacting users at the NCNR, and serves as an advocacy group for neutron scattering science at the NCNR. The Committee teleconferences on a regular basis, usually monthly, and everyone is strongly encouraged to contact members of the committee with comments, questions, or suggestions related to their experience as NCNR users. The committee will discuss user input at its regular meetings and engage in a dialog with NCNR management to address user concerns. In the end, the committee can only represent you to the extent that you communicate with us.
