Welcome to the Max Planck Institute for the science of light! We are happy to announce that Birgit Stiller has taken up her position as the head of a new Max Planck Research Group. Birgit joins us from the University of Sydney with a background in nonlinear optics, quantum communications and integrated photonics. Her new group will focus on the interaction of light and acoustic vibrations exploring them experimentally at the classical and quantum level. If you are interested in joining her group as a Master student, PhD student or Post-Doc, feel free to contact Birgit.
