We had a great short trip to Boston with the Thorlabs Mobile Photonics Lab Experience attending the American Association of Physics Teachers - AAPT Summer Meeting. Over 170 physics teachers and their families visited the mobile lab to experience and provide feedback on our approaches to introduce photonics technologies. It was also great to see the Physics Instructional Resource Association (pira.wildapricot.org) perform their live demonstrations, and see how much the Seaport has developed since my last visit over a decade ago. Thank you Debbie Andres for the visit request and Dan Cooke for helping make the visit happen. And a special shout out to Matthew Wright for the review on location (https://lnkd.in/e-7GW8iA). Unfortunately the lab snacks were tucked away so they didn't melt in the heat... we'll make sure you get some next time. 🙂 A big thank you to our employees Jeffrey Bloomer, Celeste Carbonell, Daniel Inigo, and Adam Prokofiew who received glowing reviews on their presentations through the 90 degree temperatures.
