News & Events

 

The event will bring together researchers and laser specialists from the Czech Republic, Romania, United Kingdom, Germany, Sweden, and Lithuania to share their insights and engage in discussions.

 

You will:

-Learn more about high power lasers & applications in various fields: research, industry, astrophysics, medical;
-Know more about Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) & user call;
-Make connections with professionals in the field;

-Share your insides & experience.

 

The Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) is an international laboratory system that uses high-power, ultra-short pulsed lasers. Lithuania is one of the founding members of the ELI and is making a significant contribution to this important initiative with its own lasers and expertise.
