The Working Group Chemical Crystallography (ChemKrist) of the GDCh Division of Analytical Chemistry deals with crystal structure analysis as an analytical method for solving chemical problems - in close cooperation with people who use X-ray and neutron structure analysis; in addition to single crystal methods, this also includes powder diffraction. Founded in 1979 as the Crystal Structure Analysis of Molecular Compounds working group (KSAM) in Frankfurt am Main, it has been called ChemKrist since 1999.
The working group pursues the following objectives:

ChemKrist board members
In a letter dated September 30, 2024, we informed you of the candidates proposed by the current Board of the chemical crystallography Working Group for the upcoming board election. No further proposals were submitted from the ranks of the members. Accordingly, the election of the board will be carried out with the following people, all of whom have agreed to their candidacy:
name | electoral status | |
University of Regensburg | re-election | |
Münster University of Applied Sciences | new election | |
University of Göttingen | re-election | |

University of Göttingen | new election | |
Dectris Ltd. Zurich, CH | new election | |
MPI Coal Research, Mülheim | new election | |
Dr. Alexander Pöthig | Technical University of Munich | re-election |
According to the working group's Working Guidelines, the Board consists of a maximum of four members (1x Chair, 2x Deputy Chair, 1x secretary), each of whom is elected for a period of four years. This means that eight people are available for election for four new board positions. The roles of Chair, Deputy Chair and secretary are determined by the elected Board after the election.
