OPSI Monthly Colloquium


The Optics and Photonics Society of Iran (OPSI), in collaboration with the Institute for Advanced Studies in Basic Sciences (IASBS), is organizing monthly online colloquiums on the second or the third Wednesday of every month. In this series of seminars which have been held since November 2020, prominent scientists of optics and physics from all around the globe talk about their research, achievements and advances of various fields of optics and photonics.


Venue of the Colloquium

The online colloquiums are held via a totally web-based and user-friendly platform, and there is no need to download/install any third-party applications. It is just recommended to use Google Chrome to log in.
