On November, 12-13, 2019 Prof. Alexander Kuhn delivered an open lecture “Unusual approaches for symmetry breaking in chemical systems”. Professor is a winner of an ERC Advanced Grant awarded by the European Research Council (ERC) in 2017 for the project: "Electrochemically induced Asymmetry: from materials to molecules and back".

On November, 6-7, 2019 Prof. Dr. Johannes Kästner delivered an open lecture “Tunnelling Processes in Chemistry Simulated with Instanton Theory”. The whole society of IPC, including IPC researchers and doctoral students, was invited to participated in this lecture.

On 7 - 8 May, 2019, Professor Gabor Forgacs from University of  Missouri, USA visited our Institute under a series of cyclical lectures on interdisciplinary emerging research. Profesor Forgacs is a theoretical physicist, bioengineer, innovator and entrepreneur.

Marcin Marzejon visited the Institute of Physics NCU to measure two-photon vision threshold values. During his visit, two subjects suffering from cataracts were investigated. For every subject, measurements of visual acuity test and visual field test were performed.

We encourage applicants for post-doctoral position in the Physical Optics and Biophotonics Group, Department of Physical Chemistry of Biological Systems, Institute of Physical Chemistry PAS, Warsaw, Poland.

The European Conferences on Biomedical Optics (ECBO) is the premier European event bringing together scientists, engineers, and clinicians who work with optics and photonics to solve problems in biomedicine. The conference was a great opportunity to take a look at new trends in Biomedical Optics and related topics.

Dawid Borycki (member of Wojtkowski team) attended Microsoft Build 2019. The purpose of this visit was to learn new research techniques related to signal and image processing.

Professor M. Wojtkowski and his team participated in the conference Biophotonics Congress: Optics in the Life Sciences, organized by the Optical Society of America. This event provided researchers  with the opportunity to discuss the design, fabrication, and application of biomedical optical technologies for life sciences.

SPIE Photonics West, the leading global event for the photonics and laser industries took place in San Francisco in early February 2019. Attendees enjoyed a week full of cutting-edge research (over 5,000 presentations) and courses, two world-class exhibitions (1,300 companies), a robust industry program, and plenty of networking opportunities.

The EOS Biennial Meeting (EOSAM), a major European event for the European optics and photonics community, was held in the congress center of TUDelft in Delft Netherlands, October 8-12, 2018. Over 400 attendees took part in the event and over 350 interesting presentations were held on optics and photonics. Leading experts from the optical field (e.g. Zeiss company) tutored short courses about practical information on optics design or optimal data processing.
