So nice to get away for a few days on Pittwater with the family for a nice reset. Beautiful weather, and an all‑round fantastic location.
Great to be on the harbour for the 125 anniversary of the foundation of Australia’s Navy
Great dinner in Newtown tonight as we farewelled Paul Newman after seven years at the University of Sydney and exceptional leadership of our Clinical Trials team. A fantastic colleague and steady presence in our leadership group. All the best, Paul — hope to keep seeing you.
Great day with the team at our annual research group retreat (@Knowledge Hub) - strengthening teamwork, celebrating achievements, and looking ahead to new challenges & opportunities. We even wrapped up a first-aid course… practical, relevant, & fun. A valuable reset with a fantastic group.
Sydney researchers tame 'noisy' light in tiny lasers
Findings pave the way for next-generation GPS, quantum machines and communications technology. www.sydney.edu.au/news-opinion...
🎉The NSW Smart Sensing Network team 📸 was thrilled to attend the InnovationAus.com 2025 Awards for Excellence at Sydney Town Hall last night.
Celebrated as the Oscars 🏆 of the innovation sector, the awards celebrated the brightest minds shaping the nation's future.
Researchers at the University of Sydney have demonstrated a new way to suppress noise in microchip-scale Brillouin lasers by introducing nanoscale “speed bumps” inside the devices’ optical cavity. www.australianmanufacturing.com.au/university-o...
I’m pleased to share our latest invited review article just published in Optica's journal Optical Materials Express: “Integrated nonlinear photonics with chalcogenide glasses: compositions, properties, applications, and roadmap.”

Great session today at the NSW Smart Sensing Network (NSSN) Board meeting, hosted at the Office of the NSW Chief Scientist here in Sydney. Always energising to sit around the table with such a sharp group of thinkers from industry, government and our member universities.

Spotted in local area
Stimulating day at Massachusetts Institute of Technology at the famous Research Laboratory of Electronics at MIT, hosted by Marin Soljacic and his team, shown around by #Jelena_Notaros and her amazing students and then with #Juejun_Hu- presenting a seminar / enjoyable lunch.
An enjoyable day at the INRS - Institut national de la recherche scientifique facility in Montreal, hosted by photonics legends #Jose_Azana and Roberto Morandotti, touring impressive laboratories, exploring new collaborations and research ecosystems - and a great lunch.
Great visit to Quebec for the Microwave Photonics topical meeting and a visit to Laval University
Last night we gathered with colleagues and friends of IPOS for the biennial Peter Domachuk Memorial Lecture from Prof. Shanhui Fan (Stanford), one of the world’s leading minds in photonics and electromagnetism.
We closed with dinner at the Opera House.
Grateful to join the APL Photonics Editors meeting with our outstanding Associate Editors & AIP Publishing staff. My last as EiC after 10 years—it’s been a great ride! Thanks to all who’ve shared this journey

It was a pleasure to host two outstanding leaders this morning – Professor Tony Haymet PhD, Australia's Chief Scientist, and Professor Professor Reuben Bolt, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Indigenous Strategy and Services) at the University of Sydney – for a fast-paced tour of our photonics laboratories
Great to be at @questacon in Canberra with the @NSWsensing team for engagement - kicking off National Science Week
Great to meet the Australian Chief Scientist Tony Haymet PhD - and to hear his exciting vision for Australian science and innovation, 🇦🇺 future sovereign R&D (and innovation) ecosystem. @NSWsensing @questacon
Great couple of days in Cardiff for the European Conference on Integrated Optics (ECIO) 2025 — catching up with old friends, making new connections and leading edge photonics research
Great trip to Bristol University hosted by Dr Alex Clark, (Director of the Quantum Engineering Technology Labs, former CUDOS postdoc), who is doing fantastic work leading the Centre and his team.
Great to be in London / UK for a week of conference and meetings, kicked off with breakfast with @silentypewriter.bsky.social
Great Sunday afternoon at the Rabbitohs game
