🔬 Collaboration is the key to discovery! The future of high-power laser research is built on scientists coming together to explore bold new ideas. Community-driven workshops played a pivotal role in helping researchers take the next step—leading to the creation of LaserNetUS.   LaserNetUS emerged from a series of workshops focused on addressing the needs and aspirations of researchers aiming to pioneer transformative capabilities, such as advancements in fusion energy. In our exclusive Behind the Scenes interview, Roger Falcone, Professor at University of California, Berkeley and Chair of the LaserNetUS Scientific Advisory Board, discusses the impact of these workshops on shaping a vision for the future. Prof. Falcone shares how the enthusiastic feedback from scientists led to the responsive support of federal agencies like the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the Office of Fusion Energy Sciences, enabling researchers to push the boundaries of frontier science. The evolution of LaserNetUS from a concept into a vibrant network stands as a powerful reminder of what can be achieved through collaboration. 🎥 Watch the interview now to learn how community-driven science fuels innovation! 🔗 Read more: https://lnkd.in/dcqmTQUh #LaserNetUS #Photonics #Lasers #Research #STEM #Academia #Physics #Innovation #FusionEnergy #Collaboration roger falcone
