Academics Unplugged: Dr Philip Hands - Liquid Crystal Lasers

Location: 

Joseph Black Building, Theatre 250, King's Buildings

Date: 

Thursday, November 3, 2016 - 13:00 to 14:00

Dr Philip Hands will discuss "Liquid Crystal Lasers: from displays to anti-counterfeiting and biomedical imaging" at Academics Unplugged on Thursday 3 November, 1:10pm in Theatre 250, Joseph Black Building, King's Buildings Campus.

Academics Unplugged is an opportunity for researchers to introduce their work to staff and students from across the College. These short talks provide the opportunity for University staff and students to engage directly with cutting-edge researchers.

There are over a thousand researchers working across the King’s Buildings campus. And yet, much of the time, the rest of us are unaware of their work, how it relates to other research, or how it may meet the challenges in contemporary society.

The format of the talks

The talks take place between 1.10pm and 1.50pm, several times each semester on the King’s Buildings campus. Each takes the form of a twenty-minute presentation, followed by the opportunity for the audience to discuss the subject further with the speaker.

Liquid Crystals, research in a nutshell
