ILEOS (Israel Laser & Electro-optics Society) is organizing its annual one
day workshop on recent advances in Fiber Lasers as well as presentations of
Bio-Photonics and Optronics projects supported by the Ministry of Science,
Culture and Sports (MOST). The workshop will also be sponsored by LEOS
IEEE, the Israel Association of Engineers & Architects and the Israel
Ministry of Science, Culture and Sports. The workshop will include a
distinguished plenary lecture given by Prof Steve Lipson from the Technion.
All lectures will be in English.
The symposium is free of charge, but *advance registration* is required. To
register, please send an email with your Name, Affiliation, Telephone Number
and e-mail address to Ms. Sara Cohen [log in to unmask] or 02-5411135.
The Feldman conference building can be found in the enclosed map
http://www.biu.ac.il/Tour/. Parking can be found at the public parking lots
near the Ramat-Ilan central gate (see in BIU map).
