It is always great to be locked up with our @JCEP8 colleagues for the day in the new #STEM building @uOttawa and learn about progress on the other side of #extremephotonics! #wherefewphotonsmeetthemany
Our annual scientific progress meeting on October 6 was once again an inspiring day that brought students, postdocs and professors together at @uOttawa to talk about #photonics from our “extremely” different perspectives.

We are very happy for the laureates of the 2023 @NobelPrize in Physics and for the recognition this brings to all of #attoscience! We are very proud to have been a part of it from the beginning and continue to bring our view to this exciting field of physics! #plasmaperspective
BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2023 #NobelPrize in Physics to Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz and Anne L’Huillier “for experimental methods that generate attosecond pulses of light for the study of electron dynamics in matter.”

Look who was at the @OpticaWorldwide booth at #LaserWorldOfPhotonics last week! Our own Dr. Shima Gholam was holding up the flag for @attoscience_ca. She also gave a buzz-generating talk on a 3d femtosecond pulse characterization technique developed @ProfMChini's lab.
Last day at #LaserWorldOfPhotonics. Who will stop by the @OpticaWorldwide booth or coffee house today? Genaro Montanez and I are ready to talk about membership, student chapters, #OpticaFoundation programs, publishing, meetings, technical groups... whatever is on your mind.
