This year’s CLEO/IQEC Conference and PhotonXpo the Exhibit at CLEO, was a great success for the MIRTHE Center. MIRTHE faculty, students and industry partners authored or co-authored about 80 publications presented during the technical conference. There was also a strong interest in the MIRTHE Center on the exhibit floor! MIRTHE hosted a special networking reception and dinner for more than 70 of our industry and non-profit/government members, faculty and students. A short overview of Center’s recent performance and plans for the near future was presented by MIRTHE Director Claire Gmachl. Current joint proposal opportunities were previewed and industrial members were invited to participate. We greatly appreciate all your hard work and collaboration with MIRTHE!
