Almost but not quite yet emeritus professor @RoelBaets hosts the afternoon session of the
#LightAndEnlightenment symposium. The morning session showed us the technology, now we need to apply it to make our world a better place. @PhotonicsUGent@ugent@imec_int
Know yourself! @petepeumans of @imec_int makes us look in the digital mirror at #LightAndEnlightenment, and we see our digital twin. How can we use our technology to understand our biology, and make
smart decisions for ourselves and the world. @PhotonicsUGent@imec_int
Professor @DThourhout , new chair of the @PhotonicsUGent research group, warmly welcomes the many attendees to this unique @LightAndEnlightenment symposium. We have come a long way since we made our first photonic chips. @ugent@imec_int
Setting the scene for the morning session of our #LightAndEnlightenment special symposium. Professor Thomas Krauss of @UniOfYork dives briefly into the history of photonics, and then directs our view towards the future. @PhotonicsUGent@ugent@imec_int
Professor @johnbowers111 of @ucsb lays out the challenges and opportunities in bringing lasers to silicon photonic chips at scale, here at #LightAndEnlightenment . What is needed, so in ten years’ time we find a photonic chip in every device? @PhotonicsUGent@ugent@imec_int
My last day today as chair of the @PhotonicsUGent group, one year before my retirement. @DThourhout (Dries) is taking over this role and I have just swapped office with him. I wish Dries a lot of success in his new role!
