- STELLA school
STELLA School is a one-month summer school in
laser physics andnonlinear optics , where highly qualified training in experimental techniques is delivered directly on research equipment.
The initiative is promoted by theVilnius University Department of Quantum Electronics and Laser Research Center , which puts rooms, equipment, teaching staff and technical personnel at students’ disposal for the outlined training purpose. Specialists from different institutions also participate in the training by delivering courses on their latest achievements directly at the school labs.The school is devoted to Ph.D. and postdoctoral students who are attending experimental research in the fields of laser physics and non-linear optics, as well as in those disciplines or research areas that rely upon an intensive use of laser technologies, such as medicine, biology, biochemistry, environmental protection, remote sensing, material processing, information technology, telecommunication, secure-data transmission, etc.
STELLA School proposes to the scientific community an innovative approach to training and research, which de-emphasizes competition among the laboratories in favour of enhancement of knowledge levels.
The action targets the establishment of long-term, stable synergy in training and research by creating a high-level technical know-how shared among the European young scientist community.
