The International Conference on Phase Retrieval and Coherent Scattering is the top meeting on coherent scattering methodology. It focuses on the latest developments and prospects of coherent scattering methods and phase retrieval algorithms for X-ray, EUV, electron, laser and beyond, aiming at high-resolution structure determination and dynamic analysis of matters. The conference first took place at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory in 2001 and traditionally held in a waterside location every two years.
