SUMMARY:Laserlab-Europe Talk: Medical Radionuclide Production by Laser Wakefield Acceleration\, 10 June 2026
DESCRIPTION:Title: Medical Radionuclide Production by Laser Wakefield Acceleration Speaker: Dino Jaroszynski (University of Strathclyde) Date: Wednesday\, 10 June 2026\, 16:00 Central European Summer Time (CEST) \nWe present a study of the production of 67Cu medical radioisotopes using bremsstrahlung radiation produced by 150 pC bunches of high energy electrons from a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA) when they interact with dense convertor material. 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. Mark Wiggins[2]\, Baris Bingol[2]\, Peter Ivanov[1]\, Ben Russel[1]\, and Lanre Yusuf[1] \n[1] NPL Science and Engineering Directorate\, UK[2] Department of Physics\, Scottish Universities Physics Alliance\, University of Strathclyde\, Glasgow\, UK[3] School of Computing\, Engineering and Physical Sciences\, Scottish Universities Physics Alliance\, University of the West of Scotland\, Paisley\, UK \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Watch the LLE Talk

SUMMARY:Laserlab-Europe Talk: Frequency-comb interferometry\, 1 July 2026
DESCRIPTION:Title: Frequency-comb interferometrySpeaker: Nathalie Picqué (Max Born Institute Berlin)Date: Wednesday\, 1 July 2026\, 16:00 Central European Summer Time (CEST) \nOptical frequency combs\, generated by mode-locked femtosecond lasers\, have made it possible to count the frequency of light. They now enable powerful techniques such as dual-comb interferometry. These motion-free interferometers use two combs with slightly different line spacings to achieve exceptional accuracy\, speed and resolution. They enable compact integrated photonic devices and advanced applications in spectroscopy\, sensing and imaging. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Register to the Talk

SUMMARY:Lasers4EU Training | Hands-on Course on MINDLAB: Manipulating and Investigating Neural Dynamics for Learning and Ageing in the Brain\, 13-17 July 2026
DESCRIPTION:The core faculty of the ICFO-MINDLAB\, a think tank working jointly towards a transdisciplinary understanding of the brain\, offers a school to introduce cutting edge technologies to study neuroscience at the molecular\, cellular and systems level to students in a combination of lectures and hands-on experience leading to group projects. \nWhat is MINDLAB?\nMINDLAB stands for “Manipulating and Investigating Neural Dynamics for Learning and Ageing in the Brain” and is an interdisciplinary creative playground rooted squarely in academic rigor\, comprising of research groups from ICFO and beyond. 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  \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				More information\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Register here
