안녕하세요. 첨단융합공학부입니다.

아래와 같이 이번 주 8월 22일 목요일 오전 11시에 Stanford 대학 EE, Applied Physics, Bio-X의 Hesselink 교수님을 모시고 실리콘밸리 혁신생태계의 이해에 대한 세미나를 합니다. 실리콘밸리에서 4개 스타트업을 만들고 융합적 연구를 많이 해오셨으므로 학생들에게 많은 도움이 될 것으로 생각합니다. (https://profiles.stanford.edu/lambertus-hesselink)

온오프라인으로 진행하니 관심 있는 학생들의 많은 참여를 부탁합니다.

일시 : 2024년 8월 22일(목) 11:00

연사 : 미국 Stanford 대학교 Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics 와 Bio-X, Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute 의 Lambertus Hesselink 교수

제목 : On Principles Guiding Fundamental Research for the Good of Mankind(실리콘밸리 혁신생태계의 이해)

Abstract

Fundamental, curiosity driven research is the cradle for advancing our understanding of the world we live in. Knowledge about the world around us invariably leads to new technologies, products and services. In a world where applications are the driver of research, universities have a unique role to play in this ecosystem by emphasizing blue sky approaches. However, opposing views promote applications, and short-term research. Over four decades I have tried to maintain a balance between carrying out fundamental, curiosity driven research, while keeping in mind potential applications. My guiding principle focused on providing students with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pursue their own research. In this lecture presentation, I will discuss examples of how I navigated from the classroom to the boardroom through experiences with three Stanford spinoffs, Silicon Valley startups, focusing on photonics, services and sustainable energy. Most importantly, I will share lessons I have learned during this endeavor.

Professor Hesselink Biography

Bert Hesselink is Professor of Electrical Engineering and Applied Physics, by courtesy, at Stanford. His group focuses on curiosity driven fundamental light-matter interactions, with applications in 3-D imaging, digital optical data storage and display, among others. He has presented over 270 keynote and invited presentations at scientific meetings; organized over 80 scientific meetings; and published over 500 papers in scientific journals, and over 15 book chapters. And he was an editor of Applied Optics, Applied Scientific Research, and IEEE Transaction on Visualization. Bert has over 100 issued and pending patent applications worldwide. He pioneered 3-D optical data storage technology, demonstrating world-record performance in 2000. He built the first Internet controlled laboratory in 1998. His group pioneered the field of topological matrix and tensor visualization in the middle 1990’s. He founded three startups, consulted for Fortune 100 corporations worldwide, co-designed the Astronaut Memorial, was a member of the Hubble Space Telescope Committee, and a member of the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board. Among other honors, Bert is a Member of the National Academy of Inventors, the Royal Dutch Academy of Arts and Sciences, and Fellow of the OSA and SPIE; and he studied at Caltech as a Fulbright scholar!
