From solar cells, laser fusion and measurement for healthcare and clinical applications - last week I was honoured to present a 'Trip on the Light Fantastic' on the International Day of Light, to show the excitement and importance of light for society. This was an event organised by the University of Adelaide Optica student chapter (thanks to Gabriel Britto Monteiro, Ramses Eduardo Bautista Gonzalez and Jacob Charvetto). My talk covered three aspects: Light for energy, light for measurement, and light for life. It was great to see lots of questions from high school students all the way through to teachers and professors. A pleasure to share my knowledge and passion - and inspire the younger generation!
