Student Conference on Advances in Optics 2021

Student Conference on Advances in Optics (SCAO 2021) is a virtual conference that would provide a platform for the students to get acquainted with the various branches of optics and photonics and the related research going on in these fields. The conference will also provide a platform for students, postdocs, and early career researchers in India to increase their network base to further their career choices. The photonics community in India is growing rapidly. The meeting is expected to introduce the young participants to the exciting facets of photonics, and encourage them to identify potential common grounds in their own research. We hope that this meeting seeds the formation of a broader Optics community in India.
