Participants will be introduced to state-of-the-art techniques available at European laser research infrastructures and gain practical experience through guided data analysis sessions.A main focus is placed on data analysis\, often the critical bottleneck that limits the scientific value of high-quality experimental data. By strengthening these skills\, the training enables participants to fully exploit world-class laser facilities offered through the Lasers4EU Transnational Access (TNA) scheme.The programme combines live lectures\, virtual laboratory tours and guided hands-on data analysis sessions. Lectures on Day 1 are open to a broader audience to maximize outreach; interactive sessions on Days 2–3 are limited to 20 participants. \nWho should apply\nThe workshop is primarily aimed at early-career researchers and PhD students working in physics\, chemistry\, and related fields who are interested in ultrafast laser-based spectroscopies and are potential future users of the Lasers4EU Transnational Access scheme. \nWe particularly encourage applications from:– Researchers from institutions with limited local access to advanced laser infrastructures– PhD students seeking to prepare a competitive Lasers4EU TA proposal– Scientists who have recently acquired or plan to acquire data at ultrafast laser facilities and wish to strengthen their data analysis skills– Researchers from across Europe and beyond interested in attosecond physics\, XUV spectroscopy\, or transient absorption spectroscopy \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n What will you learn\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Programme overview\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n How to participate\nApplicants must submit: \n\nA Curriculum Vitae\, via e-mail to alina.khodko@mbi-berlin.de\nA statement of purpose\, outlining the motivation for attending the training\, in the registration form below.\n\nParticipation in the Day 1 lecture sessions is open to all interested researchers.

The experiments demonstrating photonuclear production of radioisotopes have been carried out at the Scottish Centre for the Application of Plasma-based accelerators (SCAPA). 10 kBq of 67Cu was produced by irradiating enriched 68Zn over a five-hour irradiation period at approximately 1 Hz repetition rate\, which provides an important experimental benchmark. This work assesses the performance of current LWFA systems and establishes the requirements of future commercial LWFA-based systems and extrapolations suggests that the next stage of development. A facility based on optically pumped CO2 laser technologies could potentially achieve clinically relevant activity levels of 67Cu. The project is part of the MedRadLaser collaboration between the University of Strathclyde\, National Physical Laboratory\, the University of the West of Scotland\, and the UK Atomic Energy Authority. The studies will be extended and form part of the newly funded EUPOPA project. \nThe MedRadLaser collaboration involves Giuseppe Lorusso[1]\, Dino A. Jaroszynski[2]\, David O’Donnell[3]\, S.

We focus on advancing fundamental knowledge on how the mind emerges from the behavior of individual molecules\, neurons and brain networks but also creating and commercializing transformational future technologies with outstanding potential to impact our society for good. \nHence\, this course will expose participants to the state-of-the-art of photonics-based technologies tailored to monitor a hierarchy of scales in the study of the brain: i.e. from single molecules up to the whole organism. \nThe MINDLAB faculty includes world leading experts in their fields. The expertise of the core faculty is complemented by a diverse set of affiliated adjunct faculty from various research centres in Barcelona but also through clinical and corporate partners. \nThis year’s school coincide with the arrival of ICFO’s Summer Fellows\, a group of highly motivated master-level or engineering students in their final years of study\, who join ICFO research groups for three-month internships (July-September) \nHands-on sessions\nParticipants will engage in lab sessions focused on the latest photonics technologies. Each lab session will provide participants with an opportunity to work directly with advanced equipment and gain valuable practical skills. \nThe sessions will take place in the following labs: \n\nSuper resolution Light microscopy and Nanoscopy\nNeurophotonics and Mechanical Systems Biology\nMedical Optics\nPhoton Harvesting in Plants and Biomolecules\nSingle Molecules Biophotonics\n\n  URL:https://lasers4.eu/event/lasers4eu-training-hands-on-course-on-mindlab-manipulating-and-investigating-neural-dynamics-for-learning-and-ageing-in-the-brain-13-17-july-2026/ LOCATION:Castelldefels\, Castelldefels\, Barcelona\, Spain CATEGORIES:Project,Trainings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://lasers4.eu/wp-content/uploads/icfo_mindlab_2025_2.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
