Travels with photons

The moveable lab experience...

"My postdoc position was an exciting opportunity to learn about ultrafast lasers and laser processing of materials, working with Prof. Marjoribanks and his group means coming very close to the frontiers of physics. All the expertise I earned there in his lab made myself capable of setting an ultrafast processing of materials lab for the very first time in my country, México"


Professor Santiago Camacho-López, Full-time Researcher and Head of the Optics Department at CICESE. México


“Working with the Marjoribanks group was an excellent experience for my experimental and academic developement. It exposed me to the field of laser physics, and helped me learn the interesting theories behind high intensity radiation, plasma physics, and experimenting in a research environment in general. The opportunities with this group are great, and I don't hesistate in recommending it to any interested students.” 

-Hart Levy


“Participating in the high intensity experiments at ALLS (in Montreal) was a great opportunity to experience research at an international facility. In addition to meeting scientists from throughout Canada and the world, I also  enjoyed practicing using French in a professional setting and exploring Montreal on the weekend.” 

-Patrick Kaifosh


“NSERC summer research in Toronto was an excellent opportunity. Not only was there the opportunity to do research I was interested in, but it provided me with the chance to work at world class facilities, and to talk with many interesting top researchers worldwide. My research with the Marjoribanks group in intense laser matter interaction gave me much research experience that allowed me do further research at Ecole Polytechnique in France, and to enter grad school at Caltech.” 

-Brett Teeple


“It was great working in this group in the summer of 2008. My work in the lab has given me much insight into the field of applied laser physics. Also, it was a wonderful opportunity to be able to participate in the experiment at ALLS; the facilities were great, and I got a chance to see what real experiments are like.”
