This episode features Sargis Hakobyan, an R&D team leader with SPhotonix. He joined the company earlier this year to lead its new photonics lab in Switzerland, where he is the Senior Laser Materials Processing Engineer.

Sargis is a multilingual laser physicist who has long focused in solid-state femtosecond and semiconductor laser development.

In this second installment of a two-part episode, Metalenz CEO Rob Devlin talks about what the future holds for the company and the industry overall, and offers some advice for others looking to take a similar path.

In this first of a two-part series, host Justine Murphy talks with Rob Devlin, co-founder and CEO of Metalenz. He has a PhD in applied physics from Harvard University, where he worked closely with Federico Capasso. The two ultimately founded Metalenz to commercialize their breakthrough research in metasurface optics.

This episode features Mohamed Elsherif, postdoctoral associate whose research bridges bioelectronics, optics, and nanomaterials to develop innovative wearable and ingestible devices for healthcare. 

Here's another roundup of some of the most exciting news happening in the photonics industry!

This week features host Justine Murphy’s thought-provoking discussion with Ifor Samuel and Andrea Di Falco, both professors and researchers at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland.

Together, they're working to revolutionize the use of organic LEDs and metasurfaces in a plethora of applications.

Here is a great interview with Jeroen Hoet, co-founder and CEO of eyeo, a new Netherlands-based startup that's working to revolutionize imaging. 

In this edition of Following the Photons, host Justine Murphy delves into the market sector of one of the photonics industry, with statistics, projections, and expert insight.

This episode features a roundup of some of the most interesting news impacting the business sector of the photonics and optics industry, from company collaborations to funding awards and more.

In this episode, host Justine Murphy talks with Nelufar Mohajeri, director of Membership and Community Development at SPIE, Peter Andersen, leader of the Biophotonic Imaging Group and head of DTU Health Tech PhD School at the Technical University of Denmark, and Stefan Andersson-Engels, who is head of Biophotonics and deputy director of the Irish Photonics Integration Centre at Tyndall National Institute and a professor of Physics at University College Cork.

They discuss the International Summer School on Biophotonics that Peter and Stefan co-founded more than 20 years ago, which is now supported by SPIE, with a continued mission of what they say is simply "excellence, excellence, excellence."
