Best talk and best poster awards at IONS-Moscow 2010 conference sponsored by Del Mar Photonics
In 2006, several European Student Chapters of the Optical Society of America
decided to collaborate on their research and outreach activities. Getting to
know other young scientists on a professional and personal level, discussing
science, visiting international research centers, and expanding their personal
horizon visiting other countries were the main ideas driving this international
effort.
IONS, the International OSA Network of Students, connects you with people from
around the globe, all actively engaged in optics and photonics. While ordinary
scientific conferences focus strongly on just one particular topic in optics and
are rather impersonal, IONS conferences focusses on you. Present your latest
results to fellow young scientists from across optics during the scientific
sessions, discuss it, and get informed about other young scientist's
cutting-edge research projects. Your chapter's activities are at the centre of a
whole session at IONS, giving space to discussions about educational outreach
activities and more with fellow student chapter members.
For the next IONS conference in your region, check out the section on your
continent, and become part of the IONS-Project.

Dr. Jean-luc Doumont
Effective Communication in Science, Principiae
An engineer from the Louvain School of Engineering and PhD in applied physics
from Stanford University, Jean-luc Doumont now devotes his time and energy to
training engineers, scientists, business people, and other rational minds in
effective communication, pedagogy, statistical thinking, and related themes.
With his rational background, Jean-luc approaches communication in an original,
engineering-like way that contrasts sharply with the tradition of the field,
rooted in the humanities. He is thus well received by students and professionals
in search of a method they can apply with the same rigor they have come to value
in every other aspect of their occupations.
An articulate, entertaining, and thought-provoking speaker, Jean-luc
successfully reaches a wide range of audiences around the world, in English,
French, Dutch, and Spanish—as a trainer or invited speaker at an array of
companies, top-ranked universities, research laboratories, and international
conferences.
Dr. Rachel Won
Nature Publishing Group
Working as an editor of Nature Photonics Rachel's main responsibility is to
ensure that the journal publishes top-quality research in all areas of
photonics. She assesses and selects high-quality work for peer review, and makes
decisions on publications. She also plays an important role in shaping the
journal's content by giving ideas on Focus issues, reviews, commentaries and
Technology Focus issues. She commissions and edits news articles, and writes
research highlights, interviews, editorials and press releases. Attending
conferences and visiting research institutions worldwide are also essential in
her role to keep her up-to-date with the latest photonics research progress and
strengthen links with the scientific community.
Before joining Nature Photonics, Rachel worked for Aston University's Business
Partnership Unit in Birmingham, UK, as a research commercialization officer
commercializing research output of the university, particularly that of
photonics research. She obtained her PhD in microwave photonics and nonlinear
optics as a member of Aston's Photonics Research Group. Prior to that, she
worked for Philips Optical Storage in Singapore as an Optics Engineer. She holds
a Master's degree from Nanyang Technological University of Singapore doing
research in optical fibre sensing and a Bachelor's degree from the National
University of Malaysia.
