| Scientific Advisory Board Members |
|
Scientific Advisory Board members will overview the Research and Innovation Strategy of the Centre of Photonics and Computational Imaging (CPCI), will give input and feedback on the strategy, and will give advice on the implementation of the strategy to the ERA Chair team. Member will monitor the progress of the formation of CPCI and give feedback on the process to the ERA Chair at least once per year. Advisory Board members will consult the Curricula Committee (CC) in identifying the skills most sought after in graduates by employers and academics in the field of Photonics and conduct lectures in the Institute of Physics, University of Tartu, and advice the ERA Chair team. |

Prof. Saulius Juodkazis Deputy Director of Optical Sciences Center and Director of Nanotechnology, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia |
|
Saulius Juodkazis is Professor and Deputy Director of the Optical Sciences Centre at the Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia. In 1998, he received his Ph.D. (cotutelle) in experimental physics and material sciences jointly from Vilnius University, Lithuania, and Lyon-I University, France. His current interests are in the fields of light-matter interactions occurring in small space (nanoscale) and time (femtoseconds) domains. He planned, established, and directs a multi-user Nanotechnology facility at Swinburne open to the Australian National Fabrication Facility ANFF users from December 2011. His research is focused on applying principles of light-field enhancement and its spectral control for applications in micro-optics, solid-state lighting, and solar energy conversion. Professor Juodkazis has contributed to developing three-dimensional laser printing with nano-/micro-scale precision using femtosecond laser for applications in opto-fluidic, micro-optics, optical memory, and photonic crystals. He has experimentally shown the creation of high-pressure density phases of materials using tightly focused ultra-short laser pulses. He demonstrated that the nano-textured surface of Si (black-Si) has bactericidal/biocidal properties and acts as a “mechanical antibiotic,” which can be mass-produced. This work received the 2017 Eureka prize for scientific research in Australia. He is a Fellow of the Optical Society of America (OSA) and the International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE)

Prof. Peeter Saari Professor Emeritus, University of Tartu, Estonia, Europe |
|
Professor emeritus Peeter Saari was the Head of the Laboratory of Physical Optics in the Institute of Physics of the University of Tartu (Estonia) for many decades. Has also served as the director of the Institute from 1981-1988. He graduated cum laude from the University of Tartu in 1968 with a major in theoretical physics. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Tartu in 1972 and his DSc from the Institute of Physics of the Estonian Academy of Sciences in 1980. He is a fellow of OPTICA (Formerly the Optical Society of America) and an elected member of the Estonian Academy of Sciences and the European Academy of Sciences. His research interests have included solid-state and chemical physics, ultrafast phenomena, and physical optics. He has authored or co-authored about two hundred scientific journal papers, book chapters, conference publications, and patents.
