Andrea Alù

Andrea Alù is a Distinguished Professor, founding director of the Photonics Initiative at the CUNY Advanced Science Research Center, Einstein Professor of Physics at the CUNY Graduate Center, and Professor of Electrical Engineering at The City College of New York.  He is affiliated with the Wireless Networking and Communications Group and the Applied Research Laboratories, both based at the University of Texas at Austin, where he is a Senior Research Scientist and Adjunct Professor.  His research interests span over a broad range of technical areas, including applied electromagnetics, nano-optics and nanophotonics, microwave, THz, infrared, optical and acoustic metamaterials and metasurfaces, plasmonics, nonlinearities and nonreciprocity, cloaking and scattering, acoustics, optical nanocircuits and nanoantennas.

Prof. Dr. Christine Silberhorn

Christine is a physicist specialising in medical photonics and biophysics, focused on translating advanced photonic methods into clinical healthcare. Fascinated by femtosecond lasers and nonlinear light–tissue interactions, She study unique biophysical processes in tissue. She earned her PhD in Physics from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, and she is now a full professor. Her research centres on nonlinear microscopy, particularly higher harmonics generation for Instant Pathology, with clinical applications in lung, brain, and skin disease, and collaborative translational projects with clinical and partners.

Dr. Sabina Caneva

Sabina Caneva is Associate Professor and Delft Technology Fellow in the Department of Precision and Microsystems Engineering at TU Delft. She is interested in bridging advances in instrumentation and nanofabrication with insights into biophysical phenomena at the smallest scale. Her group focuses on developing ultrasenstivie nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) to study fundamental questions and tackle challenges in nanobiology, including molecular diagnostics and size-selective biomolecular transport across cell membranes.

Prof Dr. Pepijn Pinkse

Pepijn Pinkse obtained his Ph.D. in 1997 at the University of Amsterdam. Thereafter, he performed seminal cavity QED experiments at the University of Konstanz and at the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics (MPQ). Here, he worked on cooling and trapping molecules. In Twente since 2009, he pioneered quantum-secure authentication. He chairs the Adaptive Quantum Optics group and leads the centre for QUAntum Nanotechnology Twente (QUANT). Presently, he is combining quantum optics with nanofabricated media, in particular integrated photonics. 

Prof. Dr. Marloes Groot

Marloes is a physicist specialising in medical photonics and biophysics, focused on translating novel photonic methods into clinical healthcare. Fascinated by femtosecond lasers and nonlinear light–tissue interactions, I earned my PhD in Physics from Vrije Universiteit in 1997 and later held positions in Chicago and France. Now a full professor in Amsterdam, my research centers on nonlinear microscopy, including higher harmonics generation for Instant Pathology, with applications in lung, brain, and skin tissue analysis.
