Bulletin of the Czech and Slovak Crystallographic Association
appeared in spring and copies of "IUCr Newsletter " were distributed quaterly
to members of the CSCA.
CSCA obtained financial support from grant agencies
and scientific organizations in Czech Republic.
In present time, the association participates in the following
activities and projects:
The association provides the members submitting projects in the
field of crystallography and related branches with
financial and professional assistance.
