Our speaker, Dr. Bahram Jalali, will break down how photonics, light-based technologies, are already shaping everyday systems — from data centers to sensing and imaging — and where they’re headed next. No deep technical background required. If you’re curious about how cutting-edge ideas move from the lab to the marketplace, this one’s for you.

His work has led to companies acquired by Intel and BD Biosciences, and his breakthroughs have been featured in Scientific American and MIT Technology Review. He holds more than 70 U.S. patents and somehow still finds time to be an avid sailor.
