DESCRIPTION:Dr Nathan Dupertuis\nEPFL Photonics Chapter (EPC) is pleased 
 to invite you to our monthly POB (Pizza-Optics-Beer) seminar! It is se
 t to take place on Thursday\, January 11\, 2024\, at 18:15 in CO 122.\nF
 or organizational purposes\, please register for the event using this d
 oodle before January 11\, 2024.\n\n \n\nThis month Dr Nathan Dupertuis\,
  co-founder and COO of Oryl Photonics\, will show us how his spin-off star
 tup from EPFL (LBP) started from an academic finding\, to entering the pha
 rmaceutical market.\n\nIn this talk\, an advanced form of light scattering
  – high efficiency second harmonic scattering – will be presented. Thi
 s optical process has unique properties that make highly sensitive to anis
 otropies\, interfaces and particles. It can be used on a wide range of phy
 sical systems. A specific application with high potential is the detection
  of undissolved drug particles in liquids. Solubility is a crucial parame
 ter for the R&D pharmaceutical companies but it is extremely challenging 
 to measure. Indeed\, state-of-the-art solubility measurements are either f
 ast but inaccurate\, or slow but accurate and require excess of chemicals.
  High efficiency second harmonic scattering can be used to fill the gap 
 in the market offering of solubility measurement. Oryl Photonics – a sp
 in-off from EPFL – was created to bring this technology from academia to
  industry.\n\n\n--\nYou don't know POBs?\nPOBs (Pizza-Optics-Beer) are mon
 thly seminars organized by the student association EPFL Photonics Chapter.
 \nA 20-minutes presentation around optics is followed by pizza and beers!\
 nThe event is free and open to anyone.\n\nWe thank the Doctoral Program in
  Photonics (EPDO)\, the Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers
  (SPIE.)\, Optica and SwissPhotonics for their support.
