on Research
The science of light is a focal point for Science Foundation
Ireland funded IPIC, the Irish Photonic Integration
Centre. Photonics involves the generation, manipulation
and utilisation of light, with implications in medical
devises, bio-imaging, bio-diagnostics, digital networks
and communications industries. Collaborating with
some of the top multinational technology companies,
SMEs and start-ups, IPIC is positioning itself as a world
leader in photonics research.
