The University of Sydney's Institute of Photonics and Optical Science (IPOS) is set to present a year of research breakthroughs in photonics since its inception when it hosts its first symposium tomorrow and Friday.
Professor Ben Eggleton: "One of the most significant directions is the integration of biology with photonics and optics. The breakthrough of the 'optic chip on a strip' is truly life-saving technology."
As well as IPOS researchers, international and national speakers include Professor Demetri Psaltis (Optics Lab, School of Engineering, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Switzerland); Professor Fiorenzo Omenetto (Deptartment Biomedical Engineering, Tufts University, USA); Professor. Min Gu (Faculty of Engineering & Industrial Sciences, Swinburne University of Technology); Dr. John Arkwright (Biomedical Fibre Sensors, Materials Science and Engineering, CSIRO); Professor Holger Schmidt (Applied Optics Group, Baskin School of Engineering, University of California USA) and Dr Rod Vance (Optiscan P/L)
