Summer School Optics Netherlands

The topics focus on optical instrumentation to capture all useful photons in space applications and microscopy. In both cases the emphasis is in zooming in for high resolution.

This year will be the second edition and it will take place on 3d and 4th of October 2023 in Delft.
