Take a break from IPR bleeding-edge research with a session welcoming a reflection on the path that brought photonics to where it is now. Three distinguished panelists will share their views on well-established research topics that have not yet lived up to
expectations. Join and defend your beloved study or support our speakers’ view.</div>
