Francesca Calegari, lead scientist for attosecond science at DESY and Professor at the University of Hamburg, will represent DESY in the Laserlab-Europe General Assembly. She welcomes the opportunities of this membership: „At DESY we develop beyond state-of-the-art laser technology and secondary sources. By joining Laserlab Europe AISBL we gain essential visibility at European level and we can open our laser laboratories for user access.”

Consortium of leading European laser laboratories

Laserlab-Europe AISBL is an international non-profit association, bringing together 46 leading laser research infrastructures in 22 European countries. Jointly, they are committed to coordinate operation and R&D efforts in order to facilitate the development of advanced lasers and laser-based technologies, and to promote the efficient utilisation of advanced laser facilities by users from academia and industry. The majority of the members provide open access to their facilities to scientists from all over the world to perform experiments in a large variety of inter-disciplinary research, covering advanced laser science and applications in most domains of research and technology.
