Events

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.

The 2-days working visit to the University College London was dedicated to the meetings with several representatives of this Institution, including Prof Andrew Dick, the Director of the Institute of Ophthalmology. These meetings were related to the combined application for the International Research Agendas program

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.

Jakub Bogusławski & Łukasz Kornaszewski as a members of the prof. Wojtkowski's team took part in a working visit in Laser & Fiber Electronics Group, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, Poland. The goal of the visit was to discuss the possibility of scientific collaboration.

The main goal of prof. Maciej Wojtkowski's visit was to present a plenary lecture „Non-invasive vital imaging in biology and medicine“ opening the XVII Conference of Polish Society of Pediatric Nephrology. The lecture was carried out on the invitation of the organizers (as an honorary guest).

On 18 May 2018, the 1^st CREATE Scienti­fic Symposium was organized in cooperation with the Warsaw University of Technology. Titled “Physical Chemistry in biological systems – breaking barriers”, this event was a part of the 10th Anniversary Symposium of the Photonics Society of Poland, combined with the International Day of Light 2018.

This working visit took place at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. The goals of the visit were twofold: a) to integrate a pulse picker into the existing TPEF set up in order to optimize the signal for limited average excitation power and b) to build the optical setup from scratch for two-photon excitation fluorescence (TPEF) imaging of rodent eye.

Professor Chris Dainty visited the Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IPC PAS) under a series of cyclical lectures on interdisciplinary emerging research. During his career, Prof. Dainty has investigated problems in optical imaging, scattering and propagation. In these areas, he has co-authored or edited six books, approximately 140 peer-reviewed papers and 220 conference presentations.

Jakub Bogusławski as a member of the prof. Wojtkowski's team took part in a working visit to Laser & Fiber Electronics Group, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, Poland. The goal of the visit was to discuss and plan the collaboration about developing and characterization of electro-optic modulators based on graphene.
