“It is established by several studies all over the world that diversity and inclusion lead to growth and innovation. And as a developing country, we need to exhaust the strategies to achieve this growth and innovation. …
MiniModes 2021 Photonics School was an optical student conference organized by the University of Warsaw IEEE Photonics Society Student Branch. It was the second iteration of this type of event, and it is going to become an annual event. The program of the conference was …
Today we interview Prof. Peter Andrekson from Chalmers University, IEEE Fellow, OSA Fellow, past member of the Board of Governors for the IEEE Photonics Society, and member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA).
Let’s discuss PhotonIcs, in which I intentionally capitalize the “I” for “Innovation.” Innovation is the name of game in our field that drives us to demonstrate new concepts that will translate into ground-breaking technologies. What motivated me to write on this topic is an IEEE …
It’s hard to believe how fast this year is going by. Summer in the Northern Hemisphere is now behind us and the crispness of autumn is rolling into my locale in the northeastern U.S. With it comes the dawn of a new academic year, lots …

Undoubtedly, light plays a paramount role in our day-to-day lives. It helps us with orientation, enables us to perceive our environment, and contributes significantly to a circadian rhythm. The color and intensity of light may even influence our mental state and emotions. Furthermore, it is key not only to photosynthesis in plants – one of the main mechanisms rendering possible life on Planet Earth, but also to the mating behavior of fireflies, and to the navigation of moths.
