The International Union of Crystallography (IUCr) has appointed Mike Glazer as the Editor of the IUCr Newsletter, which will be relaunched in an entirely electronic format in summer 2018. Mike will be replacing Bill Duax, who retired last year after 25 years at the helm.
Mike is Emeritus Professor of Physics at the University of Oxford, UK, and Visiting Professor at the University of Warwick, UK. He has long been associated with the IUCr, most recently as Vice-President from 2014 to 2017 but also as Editor of the Journal of Applied Crystallography from 1990 to 1999 and as a member of many IUCr Commissions. He is perhaps best known for his classification system for tilted octahedra in perovskites.
The Newsletter will continue to be the place to go for finding out news and developments in crystallography. Two issues are planned for 2018, with four issues per year to appear from 2019 onwards. Feature articles, information about research, meeting announcements and reports, or other items of potential interest to crystallographers may be submitted to the Editor at any time. Items will be selected for publication on the basis of suitability, content, style, timeliness and appeal.
