IONS-KOALA 2010
The Otago University OSA Student Chapter is hosting the 3rd annual Conference on
Optics, Atoms and Laser Applications - IONS-KOALA 2010. KOALA will take place
from the 29th of November to the 3rd of December at Selwyn College, University
of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand.
KOALA is geared primarily towards PhD students from New Zealand and Australia
working in an optics-related field. Topics include:
* Nonlinear optics
* Ultracold atoms
* Quantum optics
* Spectroscopy
* Biophotonics
The conference will follow the format of previous KOALAs. Talks will be 30
minutes long and all of the delegates will have the opportunity to present a
poster.
KOALA is also cheap! The registration fee ($100 NZD or $50 NZD for Australian
Optical Society members) includes accommodation, food, conference dinner, and
social outing.
Also check out our main page and the Otago University OSA Student Chapter page.
Venue
KOALA is being held at Selwyn College at the University of Otago in Dunedin, New
Zealand. It is within walking distance to shops and the Dunedin city centre.
Dunedin is the second largest city in the South Island of New Zealand. Nearby
are many opportunities to see local wildlife and enjoy the great outdoors, with
many walking tracks a short drive away.
The climate is temperate, but variable. Even though the end of November is
heading into summer, be sure to bring some warm clothing as the weather can
still take a cold dive!
