 LocationMonterey, United States
 Abstract AIO is a must-attend event for anyone within industry who utilizes optical sensing for process monitoring, process automation, quality control, safety, environmental monitoring, and/or material identification. Optical measurement technologies are prevalent throughout industry. The second installment of the Applied Industrial Optics (AIO) meeting will address innovative applications of applied optics in industry. A wide variety of industries and academic institutions were represented at the 2011 event, which highlighted challenging applications from the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, defense, petrochemical, chemical, and medical industries. For 2012, we invite papers that combine cutting edge optical technologies and real world case studies which highlight how the technology has been applied. In addition, exciting advances in optical components or subsystems, which have been identified as promising new technologies within the field of applied optics, are also solicited. We are particularly interested in applications with extreme requirements or systems that must operate in harsh environments; two areas where optical sensors are often, the only viable solution. For example, applications pertaining to the PAT initiative, process optimization of biofuels synthesis, novel real-time non-contact foodstuff quality control and security applications are highly encouraged.

 Abstract The scope of the Optical Remote Sensing of the Environment Conference will focus on three general areas: sensors, algorithms and phenomena, and applications. With regard to sensors, the conference will focus especially on hyperspectral and multi-spectral imaging sensors, LiDAR, and multi-sensor imaging (for example, hyperspectral combined with LiDAR or hyperspectral and other non-optical remote sensing modalities such as RADAR). Under the general area of algorithms and phenomena, papers will focus on topics such as methods to correct data (atmospheric correction), exploitation methods using a variety of methods (for example radiative transfer and image classification, detection, or change detection methodologies). Papers will also address specific topics related to retrievals such as ocean color and land biophysical or geophysical parameters. Other analysis techniques and tools will also be covered, for example, compression, sensor fusion, and data visualization and GIS/information management. Application topics will address a broad range of topics where optical sensors are used to characterize the environment, such as the coastal ocean, forestry, agriculture, or environmental monitoring and natural resource monitoring and management.

 Abstract The Gordon conference on Lasers in Medicine & Biology started in 1965, and since the 1970s has run every second year, as one of the premiere scientific meetings for creative research in this field. It provides a junction point between the fields of biomedical optics, laser and optical system development, imaging, spectroscopy, biology and medicine. The objective of this conference is to bring together international researchers from academia, hospitals and clinics, national laboratories, and industries to jointly examine how new optical technologies has revolutionized existing procedures in medical practice, provide new knowledge in biology, and pave the way for new pharmaceutical and medical procedure developments. The explicit goals of this high-impact meeting are to encourage scientific exchange between biomedical optics researchers from academic labs, clinical research, commercial enterprises and national laboratories, to critically assess the state of our field and to set goals for the future.

There are 9 technical sessions currently scheduled to provide a broad and comprehensive coverage of the biomedical photonics fields while giving in-depth examination of several rapidly developing subfields. Some sessions are technology focused, while others are biomedical need focused.

 Abstract Quantum Science is an exciting new field that encompasses areas ranging from quantum information theory, computer science and mathematics to quantum optics, mesoscopic physics, biochemistry, material science and nanoscience. It holds promise to yield fundamental insight into the laws of complex quantum systems. In addition it is by now clear that potentially revolutionary technological capabilities will likely emerge from a tailored quantum engineering approach developed at this new interface. The large number of ground-breaking theoretical and experimental advances of the past few years have resulted in the formation of entire new sub-fields of science involving the above-mentioned research areas. This conference series will focus on forefront developments in this interdisciplinary field. The first meeting will specifically focus on the new interface between atomic molecular and optical physics, condensed matter physics and quantum information science.
