by Shruthi Suresh 02 Jul '18

02 Jul '18

Dear Researchers and Graduate Students: The Purdue Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) program will host the annual SURF Research Symposium on *Thursday, August 2, 2018*. We are very excited to have *137* undergraduate students from Purdue and other universities presenting their research via poster and oral presentations! The research topics will span multiple engineering, science, and agricultural disciplines. We would like to take this opportunity to invite you to participate in the SURF Symposium as a session chair (facilitators of the oral presentations) or judge (poster or oral).*We need many professional judges to evaluate oral and poster presentations throughout the day. *We are asking volunteers to judge for approximately 1.5- to 2-hour blocks (but we would be grateful if judges could stay for multiple sessions!). The SURF students appreciate that Purdue scientists and engineers, and the surrounding community come to the symposium to learn about their research projects. If you would like to help, please complete the following survey by 07/26/2018: *https://purdue.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4Gum9ksVV8BHXFz <https://purdue.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4Gum9ksVV8BHXFz>* For more information on the SURF please visit: https://engineering.purdue.edu/Engr/Research/SURF/Participants/Summer Please feel free to let us know if you have questions, and we appreciate your participation and support. -- Thanks and Regards, Shruthi Suresh SURF Graduate Assistant

Nobel Laureate to Address Photonics Conference at Purdue in August
by Deesha Shah 14 Jun '18

14 Jun '18

Later this summer the Purdue OSA student chapter will be co-hosting IONS Midwest 2018 with the University of Dayton. The conference will promote research in the optical sciences across the Midwest and will feature talks from students, post doctoral scholars, and invited guests. In fact, we have been fortunate enough to have *John Hall, the 2005 Nobel Laureate in Physics*, as one of our plenary speakers. The conference program will also include a poster session and networking events with industry. We believe IONS Midwest 2018 would be a wonderful opportunity for you to connect with the broader research community in the area of optics and photonics. More details can be found in the attached flyer and at – (http://ionsmidwestus2018.osahost.org/) . The dates for the conference at Purdue University are *Thursday, Aug 2nd and Friday, Aug 3rd in Discovery Park* later this summer. Please consider submitting an abstract – either for a talk or for a poster. You are welcome to use posters prepared for previous conferences. Furthermore, through a generous contribution from the College of Engineering, *registration for the conference is free* and we will be selling tickets separately for the formal banquet with industry and plenary speakers. We look forward to seeing you at the conference! Sincerely, Deesha Shah Conference Co-Chair IONS Midwest 2018
