focused on:
• Enabling continued growth of the internet through faster more energy efficient devices for
information transport, storage and display.
• Delivering smart medical devices for improved diagnosis and treatment of disease through the
integration of photonics onto surgical instruments and into compact high sensitivity analysis
equipment.
• Developing systems for food and environment monitoring.
