Microphotonics for biomedicine – life saving technology on a chip the size of your fingernail
Microphotonics for biomedicine – life saving technology on a chip the size of your fingernail
We already use photonic technologies every day, our smartphones, the LED lights in our houses and particularly the internet are all powered by photonics. However, photonics is also crucial for precision sensing ranging from helping satellites to tell us where we are to detecting traces of chemical contamination in seawater and biomarkers in our blood. My team is working on all of these applications and particularly exploring how really complex and high precision optical systems can be integrated onto a micro-chip size of your fingernail with the potential cost of only a few dollars. This presentation will particularly focus on our work in biomedical applications. I will particularly talk about work with the start-up company Nirtek to create optical fibre sensors to detect heart-attacks before they happen, our microfluidics work with the Australian Centre for Blood Diseases to detect how new drugs may impact blood clot formation and our work on ultra-sensitive photonic chip biosensors that can help diagnose heart attacks in minutes. Speaker: Distinguished Professor Arnan Mitchell, RMIT University Node Director, ARC Centre for Ultrahigh bandwidth Devices for Optical Systems (CUDOS), Integrated Photonics and Applications Centre (InPAC) This technical event is hosted Victorian IEEE Section Electron Devices and Photonics Society Joint Chapter & Engineering in Medicine & Biology Chapter. Registration: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/266755 Registration is open till 29 March 6.20pm, please kindly register. The Zoom link will be sent closer to the date and also to all registered participants.

Seminar: Electrical Energy & Environmental Problems Facing India and Australia and Solutions
Seminar: Electrical Energy & Environmental Problems Facing India and Australia and Solutions
This presentation discusses some important energy problems facing India and Australia and presents the current electric generation scenario in most of the developing countries with facts and figures in respect of India. It is hoped that, with systematic, advance planning, through measures like co-generation, energy management, and energy conservation, the electric energy supply scenario of AD 2025 will be free of the perennial problems of power shortages, voltage fluctuations etc. Speaker Dr D. P. Kothari obtained his BE (Electrical) in 1967, ME (Power Systems) in 1969 and PhD in 1975 from BITS, Pilani, Rajasthan. From 1969 to 1977, he was involved in the teaching and development of several courses at BITS Pilani. Earlier Dr Kothari served as Vice-Chancellor, VIT, Vellore, Director in-charge and Deputy Director (Administration) as well as Head in the Centre of Energy Studies at Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi and as Principal, VRCE, Nagpur. He was visiting professor at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Melbourne, Australia, during 1982-83 and 1989, for two years. He was also NSF Fellow at Perdue University, the USA in 1992. He also taught at Melbourne University Australia for one semester in 1989. Dr Kothari, who is a recipient of the most Active Researcher Award, has published and presented 812 research papers in various national and international journals, conferences, guided 50 PhD scholars and 68 M. Tech students, and authored 65 books in various allied areas. He has delivered several keynote addresses and invited lectures at both national and international conferences. He has delivered 42 video lectures on YouTube with a maximum of 40,000 hits! Currently, Dr Kothari is with S.B Jain Institute of Management, Research and Technology Nagpur, serving as Director Research and Professor. He is chairman of the board of governors of THDC Institute of Hydropower Engineering and Technology, Tehri.

Advanced Distribution Network Management Using Synchrophasors Data
Advanced Distribution Network Management Using Synchrophasors Data
IEEE Power Energy Society (PES) and Industry Application Society VIC Chapter Joint Technical Seminar Speaker: Dr Mehdi Mosadeghy, NOJA Power This seminar outlines the ongoing ARENA funded project at NOJA Power for the first large-scale deployment of synchrophasors at the medium voltage distribution grid. This presentation covers the project overview, the fundamentals of the synchrophasor technology, details of the data management system, applications of synchrophasors in the distribution grid, and project outcomes. A synchrophasor is a time-synchronized measurement of power system measurements. The main benefits of synchrophasor data compare to conventional measurements are their higher reporting rate, their GPS synchronized values and phase angle measurements. Synchrophasor data are reported every few milliseconds, while traditional systems such as SCADA report once per several seconds.
